a phonecall
my ex lover, ex-addict, ex-con
six and quarter feet of
tattoos and testosterone,
is the kind of man you can love
but never be with,
love but from a distance
a myopic tryst with darkness,
I call him when I am scared
when I am lost or alone
and he tells me he will
always be there, no matter how far
to keep those bitches away from my door

it's an interesting summation of a man's value. he's an insurance policy against utter desperation. well written & provocative...

I appreciate your interpretation but in this case this man's value is priceless and loved dearly.
You can love someone with all of your heart and not be able to be with them.
The purpose of the call is that he will always be my guardian because while he can't protect me from himself he will always protect me from everyone else. Hope I shed some light on it. :)
