The Vanishing Organ

Sam Ebenezer a sad ol' geezer was lamenting his shrinkage of late: my worthless ding-a-ling is a bell without ring my manhood in diminishing state From whence I salute is thin as a flute and soft to the touch as cashmere I search with persistence it offers resistance on nature's call to appear On heeding that call no waterfall a few errant droplets at best where once from the middle I gushed, now I piddle and half of my load veers west Both feet on the urn pushing forth from astern I chant 'emerge hocus-pocus' with my punctured esteem watch the pitiful stream dwindle to drops as Limp loses focus Our wee-membered friend wished his size to amend the stiffness rerouted from his joints have it rise to occasion and stand to attention consulted ol' Doc for his viewpoint: My snake is dead no flesh; just head lies comatose and useless my garden hose once warmed my toes now wrinkled, dry and juiceless The senile old doctor by name Alfred Proctor had most of his wit in absentia his breath smelt cheesy Ebenezer felt queasy Doc clearly suffered from senile dementia Doc's hand took a dip to just 'neath his ribs as Ebenezer voiced his concern Doc smiled all the while said: your hopes are futile there's no cure for your vanishing organ I lost my virility before my senility long mourned my lost pride-and-joy put my plight to rest on realizing I'm blessed to have in hand my own built-in toy **************************************

Funny if you are not a man. Clever if you are a woman. An ego lost in lack luster mode. All due to a lapse in a penal code. Memories come, memories go. lost to a woman's vanity. Allan

OH-MY-GOD-GIRL!...I could not get thru this until the third try...The vendor scene from the Marx Brother's 'Duck Soup' has the same effect...I actually have to get up and walk away to catch my breath...My two were 'When a Man Loves a Woman: A Male Black Widow's Perspective' and 'Senior Moments' if you'd like to check them out...

PS: On rare occasions, my ding-a-ling refuses to ring-a-ding-ding so I am forced to make an appointment with Dr. Viagra...

I could have sworn I've commented on this one before *shrugs*... as I'm usual I'm quite speechless. You describe it all too perfectly... it makes me wonder what you're thinking about a great deal of the time (looks around suspiciously... lol). Witty to the extreme... but definitely not something for kiddies to read... You're just too much Delysia!

A glimpse of the future for us fellers? How can you possibly find anything funny in this? Women! Okay, I suppose it is quite amusing as long as it'shappening to someone else. Very clever. - Red
