The next few poems I'll post share something different in common to the last. I went back once again to the idea of Chapters. It's a cool sense to take little fragments and create this brief glimpse of the world from them. This time I thought I'd write something...well yes, a little dirty. Those really gross moments that are part of people's day to day sex lives, that dirty moment. That's what this poem is all about, but I think what I'm trying to do and honestly it's not very subtle, but I'd like to think the next few poems are all about the subtext.
Words are powerful things! I'd written some pretty cool poems on some posted notes while I was dozing off at work, unfortunately I won'tbe sharing them today, but they are coming do not fret! Anyway I hope this poem isn't too off putting.
An Etymology of Common Mating Habits
I
Here cums the typing man
Hitting his keys like no one else can
Tic-tic, thwack-tic, thawck-thawck
Sounds each new thought as it
Spreads thingly white on the page
II
Tight so deliciously tight
clinging firm to that rotund frame
tightly embracing bodies up in
tightness
Constricted to pro(perf)jection
III
Ever seen that trick she done with
the big cherry stalk in them red
oval lips the ones that say O
in the wee hours
...Yeah no need to tell me son I know
where your eyes be.
A collection of poems and musings by a rookie poet and constant dreamer - J.O.S.H
Lately I've noticed that subtext is almost as powerful as the words on the page sometimes, so these poems are pretty interesting to me. I think you're brave to delve into the 'dirty moments' but I think you've done it well and I'm looking forward to your next post :)
