The vile appendage
This vile appendage
Merely doggerel
Tool of the coistrel kin
Dangles
like
a part
iciple
Sheathed
In human skin
Balls! Balls!
As if tongue
Could contain
It's fellated breath
Or the effluvia
Despensed
In spasmic
Spurts of
Consequence
Some feel an absence
A phantom limn
When they haven't a leg to stand on
But it's more dis-arming
To let it script your steps
Basking the brain in toxins
Flushing the flesh
Sparking the heartbeat
Sometimes I wish
It could be surgically removed
But hate isn't going anywhere

Liked the poem, but I think, like most, you need quit blaming wicked willie, for he's not as wicked as he seems. Instead, blame Hansel & Gretel, those two are the evil manipulators hiding behind the scenes. ⚾️⚾️

Lol. The "Willie" references are for analytical purposes only, to see who has a dirty mind.

You have a distinct style and cadence to your works, all your own. If placed in a line up, I think at this point I would be able to pick them out. There is intelligence, wisdom born of world weariness, a familiarity with the fine points of sciences and, like our friend Yelluw, a magnification of details that grants a kind of zen clarity. The emotional medley of this write is well rendered. A bit of cheek, as the Brits put it, with a shadow of melancholy sliding beneath the surface of the waters. Wonderful ink TG. Thank you for being here with us.
