Kissing
I will try where practitioners
far wising than I have failed,
where greater ships of thinking
than I have sailed: explain how
many approach the topic of
kissing –
from the twinkle in an eye
to the deep-felt jelly sign –
from the pucker and the peck
and the downright awkward
neck – big lips; small lips; various
tastes and lengths of duration;
this need to express, some liken to
emotional constipation – why
there are those who refrain while others,
though frowned upon, have seen opportunity
for lucrative occupation? Myself
more in the camp of, just heartfelt
recreation; while the pious, sternly,
vociferously say~ from love and dutiful
ritual there can be no separation...
So, what then should the student of kissing
rightly conclude?--to be happy in life, my
advice, explore the subject with at least one
other often in the mood....
