I smell its leather coverOver the rivets my thumb hover

I feel its substantial heftThen toss it from right to left

Embossed deeply into the front"LEATHERMAN" in bold capital font

The time has finally comeFrom boy to man become

In the palm of my hand, the metal, so coolI carefully withdraw my chrome multi-tool

No description necessary,This indispensable utility,Sported by every man in my family,Symbolizing the start of his destiny

Thirteen today I amToday I became a man!
