Bleep

Fuck is a word

I find quite absurd

It just doesnt seem to be

A word with which I can agree,

In frustration it flows

To young ears the seeds it sows

And in moments intimate to you

That word simply will not push through.

I really wish 'that word' I could say

And I do admire the way

Some people just let it out

Without the need to shout.

Maybe for some it is not crude

But for me I could no more stand nude

In a people-filled street

Rockin' to the beat.

I guess the value of shock

Allows one to take stock

Of who they are and what they want

But then (ha!) Who gives a font!!

Quite a word huh ... the club ...I've used it on occasion but only in those rare instances where I thought the club was necessary...from one who uses it very spareingly, if in mind, it may show up and is abuntly effective....just wanted to share my experience with you....Jim

Now, this is a subject that I would have never thought to write about & you did it so artistically. Here is a little trivia on the word"fuck". It comes from the 16th century Old English courts to try prostitutes. It is an anacronysm for "fornication under carnal knowledge." Just thought you might like to know why this word exists. Interesting, eh? I loved this poem. Don't stop posting. Amy
