Words Like "Sex"

Some words aren't always as pretty as they sound.

"Sex".
It is your gender.
Your soft, delicate skin,
flowing, long hair,
pink lipped smile,
seductive curves.
That's why they want you.
For sex.

The definition of the word
"Gorgeous",
is beautiful.
But they know
by saying such words
they can watch you
fall to their desires.
They watch
as your lips rethink saying things like
"no".
And they watch
as your panties drop.

They say words like
"Gorgeous"
because it always leads to
"Sex"
which is such
an ugly word.

Author's Note

Please let me know what you think. Be HONEST. I know this isn't too "common" for poetry (especially for me), but it is an important issue that gets ignored.

Perfection !
It is a word that probably should be used
more often. It is very meaningful.
People sex chickens and refer to many
things on and about the farm.
Rarely do people say, "lets have sex".
Well written and a greqt idea.

This is GORGEOUSly written. great perspective, or maybe its just a womans perspective, but nicely played out with a great flow to it.
