Interesting window on paedophilia, like a brief glimpse between the blinds of a pederast's mind. The first line is great.

We all have our desires, we're all looking for gratification, but we have different moral codes, and ones which don't always gel nicely.

morals are personal ethics are communal.. but not everyone agrees (or abides) to these ethics because their moral (or desire) systems are written differently i think.. embedded as what they feel is right

You're so mean. lol
It kind of has a 'The Spider and the Fly' ring to it. One of my favorite poems.
I think that is why it makes me smile.

^ Everybody's weird and corrupt, it just takes guts to admit it, and a uniquely creative mind like yours to present it in such a stunning way. :]

first many biological fathers are the actual pedo.
secondly. a pedo doesn't; or so i'm told, think what they do as being unethical or unnatural. (you said so yourself) if thats the case why write of it in his/its name as such.
for a poem of such a nature to work for me it has to have something that slaps me upside the head.
something that makes me understand or hate. for me it's that kind of subject. not one to be weak with.
finally; for me the title of the poem is way to strong for the content of the poem. again for me, the title becomes the poem. it does this because of the poems weakness.
when i say weak i don't mean it has no blood and snot etc. i mean it doesn't make me feel anything per say and i feel it should.
i don't see the little teddy bear crying on the floor as it shares the small boys pain as he's raped.
to me the poem feels like one of those mild cop outs. it certainly doesn't feel like the inside of what for me would be a warped mind. jmo
