Well, I'm sure you've gotten some comments about this one. The shock-factor is there. I think the underlying message may be a tad too subtle. Any message that is in this poem is competing with your analogy, and that picture of Waldo.

The character in PULP FICTION would appreciate the acknowledgement and would also appreciate the analogy. Very interesting poem. It was fun. Thank you.

A strange and wonderful poem! I love the word choices and the rhythm and flow are perfect. Like singing a song. Very interesting. Double meanings throughout. Loved it!

I am not sure what it really means, I am afraid to comment as I feel I might have a dirty mind. Am I missing something profound?
He shreds heterosexual masculinity, dresses up in leather, to have sex with a male.
bounding motion before the glory hole -as Gimp loves the dash of the gallop I am thinking that this is the sexual act I am kinda dumb and kinda smart.

Good grief! What the heck is this one all about? Erect and tall he bedazzles bounding before the glory hole? Really? And your portfolio says you like to discuss theology? What the heck church do you belong too?

    This is one of my more liberal poems discussing political assertion and dominion. LOL.
