How To Make Love Part 5

Every hammer needs a nail Every tunnel needs a train Don’t fly off the handle at every turn Speeds increase to the unknown Curves know their way around the bend Stay on the rails as gravity sometimes pretends A bumpy ride is up ahead on tracks laid down “No return” stamped on tickets to the “void” When the sun turns on its side at midnight Sunny side up, turns to the camera lens To view the picture very nice and naughty Virgins understand the venture and the depths Virgins depend on the end as their best friend Leave it to the conductor for a smooth ride home Leave it to his wife to finish alone or at least at last
