Haiku? How 'bout 25 words or less instead?
The original challenge goes like this: "The game is that you write a D/s, kinky or sexy haiku -- write one, write a dozen -- it's up to you. What is a haiku you ask? It is verse form having three lines of five, seven, and five syllables."
I don't usually respond to tags. But since I have no ear for haiku, and since Miss Syl of put me in her tag list, *and* since I haven't written many 25-words-or-less posts lately, I thought I'd tackle it with my preferred short form.
Hmm. D/s or kinky? How about kinky D/s instead?
- Bound high on tiptoes, muscles straining, chest and ass striped and bruised, spent and quivering. Your shy smile thanks me. Then you undo my bonds. (25)
- What are you doing, figleaf?!? "Well, it's sensuous when I stroke your body with a single feather. It's kinky when I use a whole duck." (25)
- "What am I stroking you with? Lipstick. Here. And here. And... here." (12)
- Come kneel across my lap. Lower your skirt and panties. This will be harder than you're used to. I'll only stop... if you stop counting. (25)
I won't tag anyone else but you're more than willing to post own haiku or 25-words-or-less entries on your own blog or in comments.
LOL You've brightened my day and made me hot in 25 words or less. Not bad before 7 am on a Monday! Thanks! xo
[That's great, Snow White. Thanks. --fl]
Fig, I love your 25 words or less!
[Thank you, DarkNeuro. --fl]
Ah, well done, Figleaf! I highly approve of subverting form.
Is the duck live or stuffed?
[Hmm... formal vouyerism is both a crime and a perversion so jokes about Peiking Duck would be in poor taste. So it'd have to be a live one, Syl. Oh yeah, and of course insert appropriate PETA-compliance statement -- no live animals would be harmed in the making of that fantasy, etc., etc. :-) --fl]
Well, it's sensuous when I stroke your body with a single feather. It's kinky when I use a whole duck.
There's a movie here. The Marx Brothers in "Munch at the Opera."
Thank you, Figleaf.
[No, thank you, Kocahnie. --fl]
And there I was hoping I'd get tagged. ;)
[That's the nice thing about not tagging anyone, Darkdaughta. You're not leaving anyone out, you're letting everyone in who wants to be in. Go for it. --fl]
Why is this picture so severely cropped? : )
Love the first 25-worder. Very cute.
[Thanks, AAG. I've been cropping because, well, some days I feel bold and others I'm shy. And sometimes implications are more fun than hanging everything out to dry get soaked. :-) I'll perk back up in a day or two. Oh, and maybe I'll upload the originals behind the Friends category firewall at Flickr. --fl]
Five, seven, and five, huh?
Well, I'll try.
On all fours, your bed,
Throbbing cock against my ass
Not that hole...that one.
Ooh, maybe too dirty?
[The call was for D/s or kinky haiku and you're worried about being to dirty. Mona, Mona, Mona, you're adorable when you blush. Also hot. And I love the ambiguity you introduce with this-not-that. Thanks for contributing. Now go put that on Cherry Stems -- you haven't posted there since forever. --fl]
The duck one got me laughing, the lipstick one got my juices flowing... ;)
[Yeah, there's something about lipstick that I think is just totally underrated. To be honest I'm not crazy about it on people's actual lips, but it's soft, it's buttery, it's nicely scented, it's as hypo-allergenic as anything since it's already designed for sensitive mucous membranes (lips) and when properly misused it's amazingly, sensously lewd! Thanks, Bella! --fl]
ok.... what does D/s mean?
not that i would do this poem thing... i just can't figure out what it stands for....
[It's short for Dominance and Submission (the DS in BDSM.) It's usually written with a capital D and lower-case s because, I think, practitioners like the emphasis. Bonking around the blogosphere, and the web in general, you could get the impression that most people prefer dominant men and submissive women and I thought it would be fun to play with that. Good question, Needra. Thanks. --fl]
Hmmm.
Tied tight to the bed
I yearn for your evil touch
Shit, the kids woke up.
[Cool, a complete scenario in 16 words. Decent, Goose. Thanks! Also, I can sympathize. --fl]
Figleaf,
In your response to AAG's comment, you said that you are sometimes shy and sometimes bold. If you still wish to explore gender stereotypes, I think that shyness among men and boys would be a good topic.
When a man is shy about initiating a sexual advance, a woman can very easily misinterpret this as a lack of interest in her because she is too aggressive, or unappealing. Many relationships that barely started have met an untimely death because the woman assumed that ALL men were sexually bold, and a woman had to be VERY unattractive if a man did not hit upon her.
Similarly, a man may have walked away from a woman who was very attracted to him, because he felt shy, but was too embarassed to admit that shyness even to himself. Easier to say that the former girlfriend was too sexually aggressive.
Now there definitely are mismatches between low and high libido partners, as you and other bloggers have discussed. But in addition to differences in libido (which can vary for the same person throughout his/her lifetime), are we also complicating this compatibility issue by our assumptions about how normal men and women should behave sexually?
If you and your readers have already discussed this, just refer me to that post. You have almost 700 posts, and while I have read quite a few, I have not read all. Thank you.
