So

How totally enough it is to be tough--
Not phony tough, not dangerous,
Not I-want-to-be-your-worst
Mutilatory gangster, fascist, nightmare
Terrorist, revolutionary, cop tough. No.

It's beautiful just to be perfectly,
Indestructibly, indubitably tough.
There's no more boasting, bombing
Threats, or rhetoric necessary, no saber-
Toothed Gatling guns then, men. Just enough.
