Oh no....


The curse of copulation


1

In my fresh years, I mistook love for leisure,
And carnal fruits were rather roughly raided
In woods and lanes secluded for the pleasure;
My higher self had no choice but be shaded -
My lower self, though, soon revealed its measure -
For wayward wives cried "blameless" for what they did,
While sampling assorted sensual scenery
And grappling in the undergrowth and greenery!

2

A sticky business, fornicating fling,
Was my dark joy - a sensual poacher's skill,
I didn't care a condom for the ring
of marriage, and only craved the thrill
That new sensations bring -
For which there'll be a hefty spiritual bill?
And don't I now regret the fruit I sucked -
Which left me highly strung - and badly plucked!

Oh no, indeed... for in its pristine state is a very poetic experience. I suppose we are broken into this via media and false first impressions. Good write, and amazing content of inner depth.
