Premature Ex



An old Ethiopian veteran of the love wars 
once told a newlywed Kenyan kid:
If you want the infant marriage to survive,
make it to the golden years Mt. Kilimanjaro side
You gotta keep the giraffe standing up,
when the ecstasy mountain air gets thin at night
When you’re starting the climb,
	don’t early reach 
for the apex of a lovemaking climax
You gotta stay rock hard,
climbing the pleasure wall for the long haul — 
Or don’t even shorty night come at all
Keep the flagpole reared tall;
		because the minute your
testosterone stone levels fall,
you might as well go geld yourself
	Premature burial ... 
put the family jewels in a coffin box
Don’t bother to take off your pants,
might as well keep on your socks
Prepare to have plenty eunuch days
	of abstinent nights 
		Too many failed erections
gonna get you shovels loads
	of opposite sex dissatisfaction
Expect a bedroom eviction notice,
	telling you to
get your droopy drawers packing 
Frequent impotent performances,
	gonna get her eyebrow curtains raised
So many flaccid phallic early encore excuses made
gonna get you tossed out of the bed,
and kicked downstairs onto the couch
Premature ejection is coming,
your woman’s been too long frustrated ...
doubts gon start creeping in:
Where you been,
who you seeing ...
Why you keep coming home
with your love sacs empty?
Those suspicions gon start stiffening:
	She’s gonna wanna know
whose arms been keeping your bottom mind bent
	You’re gonna wanna know
where in the world did your lost manhood get sent 
If you don’t wanna lose access 
	to her intimate-starved heart,
you better start trying harder on keeping it hard
Learn to get a second wind of stamina,
too much soft effort gon get your love privilege barred
Premature pleasure aborted love
will have your armadillo snout soul dragging
Premature love not long enough
will have your elephant nose spirit sagging 
Don’t depend on bottled passion,
pharmaceutical extended sex
Too many early evening elongated failures
gonna get you a premature ex

...only you could get away with this. This is tragic...the whole show here...I don't know whether to laugh or cry. My heartfelt commiserations....really, Armadillo Snout? Oh, the imagery. Maybe a bit of Betty Davis might assist Lone Ranger.

best laugh all day. I'm adding this one to my favourites - truly. If I end up dreaming about Armadillos or Giraffes tonight, I will be holding you culpable.
