"How the memory of her sluttish face"A Poem by Ngoc M. NguyenUsing the sublime poetic form of the sonnet to express something quite ugly and repugnant--being tricked into losing my virginity to a common, deceitful s**t.How the memory of her sluttish face disgusts me. What on earth was I thinking? My time lost in her sickening embrace was loathsome, rank, gross, foul, vile and stinking. O why gave I myself to one so whorish? (I know why. But it's pointless.) Young, naive and mislead, I failed to divine her game-- so hell-bent was I to casually receive her. In hindsight, I would undo the past and live forevermore as a virgin,-- pure! In that there's no shame. Oh, but the waste of not waiting was my too fatal sin! Since love most foul came at such terrible price, I'll not repeat this error--not even twice. © 2015 Ngoc M. Nguyen |
