INNOCENT WISH



I wish I could master the art

of flirting

and be a li’l slutty

able to swing my hips

at the slightest smell of testosterone.



what is orgasm, praytell?

oh, I forgot,

that must be experienced,

not told

man, I must be out of this world

when all of the men are getting in

sliding between thighs

of women, not mine.














Author's Notes/Comments: 

I have mounting pressures from friends and peers. I am a modern woman in most ways, but sex before marriage? Nope. Well, who knows, it might change though. (lol) Do I need to turn my back from my conservative values, to blend in the current stirrings of society? Not yet...

HEY! I LIKE YOUR POEMS. YOU SHOW TRUE HONESTY. P.S. YOU DON'T NEED TO ACT SLUTY OR SLEEP WITH MEN JUST BECAUSE THATS ONE MANY OTHERS ARE DOING. THAT IS THEIR CHOICE. WAIT FOR LOVE AND IT WILL COME, I KNOW, I DID!

Lola, I didn't say that flirting is being slutty. (duh, lol). All I did was to wish that I could MASTER the art of flirting and LEARN how to be a li'l slutty. Since I do have such puritan values, if I'll know how to flirt and try to be slutty, then, somehow, I wouldn't have no qualms of going to bed with a man outside of marriage. Am always been attracted to a man of course, mutual feelings, however, I don't go all the way. I can't say am a prude cuz I know how to respond to a man, of course. :P

Why not read my two poem.”a Spinster’s Wish" and "A Spinster’s Pride". I dedicate those who are still single, and prolly virgin too:p. That's inside "20 poems 02".

This poem is good, but your initial lines are kinda sour-grapping. Flirting is not being slutty and doesn't always end up with a man in bed. Let me stress, ergo, that "appeal" plays a very significant role in flirting., And no amount of flirting can make a man move unless he finds you "appealling. Thus don’t blame Salome, blame her looks—her appeal .
