If copulation is good for your health. Why does masterbation make you go blind? At least that's what my mother told me. Today I need glasses. Guess I'm on my way.

    Good question, Thomas! Your mom was right. It only affects the vision of kids that get caught. You must have learned to be discrete before it was too late. You're probably ok now. Thanks for sharing.

This free vere plain poem is well written. It is dull and boring (no pun intended)as it should be. There are no trimmings just plain talk, Not even a suggestion of sexiness here. Great job!

    I'm not sure what you mean, Ryme4u, but I hope you like the plain stuff, too. :)
    I figure there's no need to be explicit, because the reader's imagination can do a perfectly good job of fillling in the blanks with his or her own images of perfection.
    I like to go for the yuks.

    Thanks for the complimentary review, and good copulation to you! (I thought I'd throw in some rymes for you.)

    I was paying your poem a compliment. You followed the directions perfectly with no trimmings and the many ways you let the readers interpret your poem is just right.Great job.

    I'm aware that it was a compliment. I thought you'd know my reply was tongue-in-cheek. Thanks again!

Brilliant! A wonderful, thoughtful and humorous presentation of a most stimulating sensation. The entire poem flows well, nothing is forced. Perfect style and structure.
I enjoyed thoroughly your ability to play with words.

I enjoyed your notes, especially your copulation sequence, nearly as much as I did your free verse.
I know you must have had just as much fun composing this odious ode as I did reading it.

Great read.

This quite a whimsical take on the topic of copulation you have penned. Your cautionary preamble sets the tone for what is to come and you did not disappoint. This poem is quite funny and the rhyming flows well. While the anticipation of it being overtly sexy leaves one wanting more.

Also your creative use of words such as concupiscence...flirtation...fascination...
participation...copulation...gyration...consummation...pollination...procreation make this a classic composition of exceptional creative expression on a sensitive subject often considered taboo.

All the best in the contest

Eugene

    That is a wonderful review, Bermy! I have fun writing most of my pieces, but this one even more so. I'm pleased and sorry that you finished wanting more. Actually, most of the poem is about sex, and therefore sexy. If I labeled the poem PG, nobody would have read it.

    I grasp what you mean by "overtly." I don't write porn or explicit sex. Gross! (I don't even take any clothes off to "do it" I disapprove of interpersonal nudity and excessive touching) ;)

    Thanks for your very appreciated comments, Bermy, and I hope our paths will cross again soon.

    Cheers!
