THOSE HOTTIES FROM THE GDR

entry picture

Those hotties from the GDR

Who putt the shot or cleared the bar

Who sprinted over 100 metres

Were truly sexy record beaters;

Marita, Marlies, Silke too

A troika from their relay crew;

Some, of course, had butch-er looks

But compensated, like Ruth Fuchs;

Every one would pass my test

But Heike Drechsler was the best

Blond of hair and muscle-toned

More than once I’ve spunked and moaned;

The icing on my cake though it’s

The vegetation of her pits.

As though beneath the wings of swans

Were two small rodents clinging on;

One glimpse would make me splash and spit

As Heike splashed the long jump pit.

 

These days a smoother look is prized

And armpits are more sanitised;

But still I look back on those days

With fondness and a glass I raise

To those athletic babes of late,

Though now we all appreciate

Those hotties’ pits, my crowbar bone –

The cause of both –

                              Testosterone.

Ah, Tamara Press with her sister Irina. What fun I could have had with those two! We would have played "Guess how many bollocks we've got between us".
Even today our quiz team gets accused of being on drugs when we do well.

That was when Yuri Vlasov was heavyweight champion
of the world in weightlifting: in those far-off "innocent"
days. And Doug Anderson in the USA was lifting 1000lbs
off the deck via a specially designed body harness.
As for Tamara Press - what a great name for a shot-putter!

Graham - yes indeed, Heike was a class bird.
Stu - glad you enjoyed. Those girls gave me plenty of enjoyment.

there is so much in this to enjoy i can't even begin. but;

Some, of course, had butch-er looks

But compensated, like Ruth Fuchs;

is definitely my favourite.

as far from my kind of poetry as you can get (it rhymes, its funny, its lighthearted, it hasnt a hint of pretension and i have no idea who any of them are) but i'm enchanted.

bravo.

Very possibly the finest words on WOL in 2015 to date:

"The vegetation of her pits.

As though beneath the wings of swans

Were two small rodents clinging on"

Actually Heike was a good looking girl with or without the fuzz, but as thrower I was always entranced by Tamara Press!!
