[A request was made to write an answer to the poem LIFE FUCKING and this is what I came up with. Hopefully it can stand with the original.]
When I started out
I stumbled
Like a fool in the dark
She laughed
I wish
But pity was the dish
Served with cold water
Bear with me
As I reminisce
I don’t think she’d mind
If I tell you this
How to get her naked
Arms wide open
When I first met her
I was impatient
I was immature
Trying to be a man
Premature
The tightness of her grip
I wasn’t ready for
Maybe I believed the fantasy on TV
Or bad advice
From those who’ve come before
But it wasn’t that easy
She left me in the corner
Kneeling on the floor
Crawling before I walked
It rains and then it pours
But there wasn’t any wetness
Lessons
First
I should have taken my time
Allowed her to give me a tour
Travel all the hills and valleys
Curves
Of her roller
Coaster
Forget about the chip on mine
Warm up her shoulder
Let her tell me
How she was always neglected
Always looked over
Wondering
When someone would slow down
Hold her
In their vision
See her beauty
Behold her
Then her straps would melt away
Naked
To your eyes
She’ll be everything you wanted
Now
All that’s needed is a sacrifice
Be polite
Etiquette
Maybe this is your first time
And you cringe at the price
She’ll see your hesitation
So don’t lie
About your willingness to pay
Because she’ll see it
Circumstance
Influenced by the words of those guys
You think she’s a whore
Forget what you’ve heard
Pay the fee and she is yours
Remember it rains
And then it pours
To get rid of the friction in life
And if happiness was sunshine
It would be your reward
Be gentle
Not every life is the same
And if you want to go deep inside her
Remember from where you came
Come
Closer with mutual excitement
You shouldn’t be ashamed
Cherish her
Be fruitful and multiply
And together
Give your future a name
Maybe this ending isn’t for you
Maybe you’ll stop
After you penetrate to her core
Learn her secrets
Saying you want no more
Than
The pleasure of knowing life
Intimately
But no matter what you choose
That’s
Fucking life
