Marlon Brando / James Baldwin

“It took five seconds—
For the barefoot boy’s wet tracks
To dry on the porch”

This Other Place
Brando studying—
Under Erwin Piscator
New School drama class
With his crooked grin—
“On the Waterfront” toughness
Sensitive butch male
Deeply attractive—
His steady emotions and
Vulnerability
Brando and Baldwin—
Both of them more than actors
Simpatico men
