Pickpocket

I keep my wallet in my front pocket, just to the right of my crotch,
 out of the reach of the thieves
   where I can feel leather-on-cloth-on-flesh
   where it dangles ineffectually
     like a lop-sided third testicle.
     If anyone wants it,
   all they have to do
 is reach in there
and squeeze.

    And what would you do if you felt someone reaching in to get it?
    Blank.

    I do this to when I go to unsavoury places. If I go to really unsavoury places with sexy unsavoury ladies, I try to advertise the fact it's down there. Roll up ladies.

    The title was very befitting. I'm trying to figure out what would spur a write like this? Although short it has the quality of a lot of poetry you find in print in contemporary books. RC
