What To Do After You've Participated In A Threesome
The feeling of
having just finished
a threeway
is
non-mapped islands
You are now in a bed
with two naked
bodies
that don't immediately fade
And no one
explains the common courtesy
of getting some food
After performing what's known as an
Eiffel Tower.
We throw ourselves
out to sea
With minimal knowledge
of the breeding grounds of tropical fish
or the difference between
dolphins
and
sharks.
And yet
we are expected to pull in
a winner.
A good one.
As if another person is some idol
that is for the
watchful eyes of a
matriarch.
Perhaps your trophy is not made of the correct metals
or maybe they lack luster
from years of
neglect
Maybe good old dad will mention that the 'bits' were incorrect.
Threeways are untraditional
They aren't made of polished bronze, that hangs in the cabinet
Or a prize bass
That was consumed long ago.
But a threeway is in essence easy to understand
from the perspective
of not idols
but hearts.

Really interesting, delightfully bold, quite funny and very thought-provoking, especially the ending. It seems so much more than the obvious.
And well written!
