My Husbands Penis has died......

A poem about the more unknown customs and traditions around the world.....

MY HUSBANDS PENIS HAS DIED AND OTHER CURIOUSITIES........

 

HERE’S SOME STRANGE CUSTOMS TO BE FOUND ON THE EARTH,

SOME WILL MAKE YOU LAUGH UNTIL YOU SPILL YOUR DRINK;

OTHERS MAY OFFEND YOU AND MAKE YOU WANT TO SCREAM,

BUT ONE THING IS FOR CERTAIN, ALL WILL MAKE YOU THINK!!

 

THE BURUSHO TRIBE PREPARE FOR A FAMILY WEDDING;

THE BRIDE AND GROOM APPEAR TO BE TRULY ELATED;

THE BRIDE SHARES THE WEDDING BED WITH HER MA IN LAW;

WHO STAYS WITH HER UNTIL THE MARRIAGE IS COSSUMATED!

 

THE WALBIRI TRIBESMEN OF THE AUSTRALIAN DESERT

HAVE A CUSTOM MANY MAY FIND HARD TO UNDERSTAND;

THEY HAVE SUCH TRUST IN THEIR FELLOW MAN, THAT ON MEETING,

THEY SHAKE THE OTHER MANS MALE ORGAN INSTEAD OF HIS HAND!

 

ON THE ISLAND OF BALI, AMONG THE AYMARAS OF PERU

THERE’S A TRADITION BASED ON WHAT THE TRIBE "ASSUME’’;

THEY ALLOW BOY AND GIRL TWINS TO MARRY ONE DAY,

AS THEY BELIEVE THEY’VE ALREADY BEEN INTIMATE IN THE WOMB!

 

MACUSI INDIANS IN GUIANA CHOOSE A HUSBAND BASED ON ANTS;

THE MALE IS SEWN INTO A HAMMOCK FULL OF THE BITING KIND,

AND THOSE VERY BRAVE MEN THAT LAST THE VERY LONGEST

WILL MAKE THE MOST VERILE HUSBAND A GIRL COULD FIND!

 

THERES AN ODD CUSTOM AMONG SOME INDIANS OF COLOMBIA,

AS A BOYS FIRST SEXUAL EXPERINCE MUST BE WITH HIS MOTHER;

IN THE WEST WE WOULD CALL THIS COMPULSORY INCEST;

BUT FOR THE CUBEO TRIBE IT'S A TRADITION LIKE ANY OTHER!

 

SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THE WONDERFUL PULAYA WOMEN IN KERALA,WHO GO BACK TO WORKING THE FIELDS SOON AFTER GIVING BIRTH? THEIR POOR HUSBANDS THOUGH HAVE TO RETIRE TO THEIR BED TO RECOVER; AS THEY ARE FAR TOO ANXIOUS AND TRAUMATISED TO WORK THE EARTH!

 

AND TO THE SARAKATSANII SHEPHARDS OF GREECE

DYING UNMARRIED MEANS NOT LIVING UP TO YOUR WORTH;

SO BACHELORS & SPINSTERS ARE BURIED IN WEDDING CLOTHES,

THERE BY JOINING THEM IN WEDLOCK WHEN IN THE EARTH!

 

AND FINALLY….THE GISU WOMEN OF UGANDA HAVE A LOT TO SAY;

ESPECIALLY WHEN THEY BECOME SEXUALLY DIS-SATISFIED;

THEY WILL OPEN THEIR WINDOWS WIDE AND DECLARE

............................... “MY HUSBANDS PENIS HAS DIED”!!

Bawhahahaha great read

Wow, where do you come up with all this stuff. I very impressed by your knowledge of so many things. This truely is an eye opening work. Fortunately for me, my wife has only had to yell out the window a few times, and maybe once while I was sleeping.

I like how you weaved the customs of the world about mating and made them very interesting. I had to read it once I saw it, I was thinking it would some kind of love poem. To my surprise it was trip around the world and a fun one that. This a good write and a wonderful trip, thank you for sharing.

With a title like this... I was almost certain it was advertisement for viagra or something.. guess I was wrong! Wonderful collection of interesting facts. I just hope my wife doesn't get any ideas with the super glue.. =)
Well researched and conveyed.

omg lol! I just HAD to read this, but the anthrpological brillance and shocking originality of this was hilarious, soulful and indescribably unexpected!

Yup, I'm with Alex: Dare I even wonder how you came to be Googling
this rather specialized subject matter?? Of course, as recently as the 1800's, even we in the west had some awfully queer traditions, in re
that region--remember codpieces, hmmm? Of course, when your
trousers look like hot-air balloons, and your wife wears shelves at
her waist to make her hips look BIGGER, f'Gaw'sake! I'd say that
sexual mores and customs are not a whit weirder here than there,
nor now than then! A most--ahem!--provocative read, Lin!

As long as the woman crying: 'My husband's penis has died.' is not waving it to all and sundry at the same time . . .
At the end of this poem I felt that that I could remove my hand from my crotch and relax a bit. Fascinating stuff. One must ponder the reasons for your research, however.

Yet another incredible read .. you've truly shown not only your deep interest in people with this post but a very strange and wonderful sense of humour! Have to say that I coo-ed and cor-ed with each stanza but this one really made me laugh .. '

Beautiful with all these facts, you're such a good writer. xx

Wonderful write in great detail that gets the gears in the brain turning, this poem is fresh in its originality and deserves a pedestal for such.
