A great read, thanks for a funny ride. The bible says the 'marriage bed is undefiled' ie whatever a couple want to do for each other's enjoyment in the bonds of marriage is ok in God's eyes. No spags and a real enjoyment to read.

UPDATE: CONGRATULATIONS ON WINNING. My 12 votes put you over the top. Oh, wait, that's for the presidential election. My favorite lines are: "one can't produce what everyone favors. (that's why there's jello in so many flavors)." And, I did not find it odious and did enjoy the reading, especially your use of words often not used. Good luck in the contest - YOU WON!

Comment from Alex Rosel
I like the slant you've adopted for this ode -- that of informing the reader that your work may be misleading or incorrect, but in any case flippant :-) It's a fun piece that brought a smile to my face. Good luck with the competition.

Thanks for your complimentary review, Alex!. Much appreciated!
Comment from tfawcus
This stands alone in my estimation for the splendid invention of 'coplulationship'. As one would expect in a poem extolling the probing of internal parts for pleasure, it tittilates with copious internal rhyme. One can really only conclude a review of a piece such as this with a hearty ejaculation: "Bravo!"

Tony, thank you so much for your profoundly poetic praise of my possibly passably, proficient piece!
However, you must accept full credit for the authorship of "copulationship." I humbly admit, though, to "impregnationship."
As much as I appreciate your plenteous plaudits, perhaps it would have been politic had you held your ejaculation until my "Copulation " climaxed (as authorship is not disclosed in this contest, why do you assume 'bravo!," not "brava!" was the appropriate exclamation? (Sexist?) ;) :oD!
Sorry, Tony, I couldn't resist!

Oh dear! I am profoundly embarrassed by my false entry and shall make both a hasty withdrawal and retraction. I remain in awe of your bravura and bravado. You leave me limp with shame!

Only joshing. By all means (or any means) do not withdraw!

Very clever, you did a wonderful job (and you're right, needs no illustration). The flow was great, good rhyme . Best of luck in the contest.

Thank you for the compliments, crybry! I'm glad you enjoyed my poem on copulation (and filling in the visuals with your own). Good luck with your writing!
Comment from Bill O'Bier
Your words are expressive. Thanks for sharing this piece and good luck in the contest. The only other comment I have is copulation at its spiritual best is so much more than physical coupling.
Wishing you all the best...

Hmm. Isn't copulation, when at its spiritual best, physical coupling? Well, enjoy anyhow, while working on that one! Thanks for your complimentary review, Bill!
Comment from Reedblitzerman
I almost didn't write a review and then I decided, "Screw it!" You take some light hearted and enjoyable digressions. It certainly is free verse and I enjoyed your approach immensely. You touched just a bit on religion, impregnation, fun, and a bit of history. Quite an accomplishment for such a short ditty.
[obviously, it's intentionally specious, and equally clearly, it's facetious.] excellent use of language here, where I'm biased as I love the word "facetious".

I'm glad you had a good read, Reed! And that you decided to screw it. You enjoyed it, and there was no harm done. (I thought I'd be facetious for you.) Thanks for your insightful review!
