The Age of Heroes

Men with beards who play guitars
who feel no pain from their tattoos

men who know the parts of cars
secretive about their views
their personal philosophies
display the awesome power of Zen
they can punch through steel with ease
their whisper has the power of ten
men who chase their wildest dreams
in TV documentaries
men who double-stitch their seams
they cross the world in SUVs
and then return with gifts for us
a yeti’s ear, a colobus
