At Camp Ipperwash
When I was 18 and virgin
I worked in an Army kitchen,
part of an army of civvy support
that underpinned Camp Ipperwash.
We had a walk-in cold room for food,
and I had gone in for something,
when after me came two mature women,
19 and 27, laughing, convinced I needed wrestling.
I battled back mightily,
mighty mightily,
not to be overpowered by females,
and in a pyrrhic way, won,
But something about that form of flesh
gave them the victory, over All.
