The Hermit Card

The card that I got was the Hermit
And I’ve got a secret to share
Although I am a true Virgo
The virgin part isn’t still there
For I have this thing against women
This “thing”s not a virtuous thought
This “thing” is alive and willing
And oh all the trouble it’s brought
I don’t want to go into seclusion
But maybe it’s best that I did
For I finally reached the conclusion
That my “thing” don’t like to be hid
So maybe it’s best you don’t ask me
For guidance in relationships
For my thoughts may be inner directed
But they’re focused pretty much on your hips

first place or 10th place - it doesn't matter as long as someone reads the poems and lets the poet know they have fans.
