What Else Is A Poor Boy To Do?

What Else Is A Poor Boy To Do?

A Poem by Pete
"

The perception of beauty is a moral test. - Thoreau

"
Venus de Milo on display at the Louvre

standing alone to satisfy conjugal, visionary appetites like a towering silo
my venus de milo
marveling at your classic beauty
i long to buss your pursed, cherry pucker
scale your unfaltering peaks
run my fingers through silken threads of raised locks
caressing your alabaster complexion
navigating your parlous curvatures
squeezing the marble stuffing out of you
after all, you're the goddess of love, so

what else is a poor boy to do

Author's Note

Pete
"Never lose an opportunity of seeing anything beautiful, for beauty is God's handwriting. The beauty of a woman is not in a facial mode but the true beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It is the caring that she lovingly gives the passion that she shows." - Ralph Waldo Emerson

She may be the goddess of love but she is essentially armless. Excellent your wit is showing my friend. As well as your ability to see and write beauty.
