#i just got real upset about pervy old dude poetry

[on-the-tide-of-empire]

Giving Them The Slip

O unseductive beauty

O intransient passion

O sexless goddess

O blinded attraction

▪️

Where are the poets

Who speak of the ample curves

Of unmotivated hearts?

▪️

Where are the sonnets

About the throbbing girth

Of a dear friend’s passion?

▪️

O unfucked flowers

O ungroped gorges

O unfisted fiddles

O unopened corsets

▪️

Consider this your song

A poem for the platonic

An anthem for the asexual

For heralds less hedonic

▪️

Bodies are still lovely

Beyond your fingertips

The forests just as majestic

If the trees don’t stand for dicks

▪️

O followers of Dr. Freud,

Feel free to fuck right off

Leave our symbology alone

▪️

Let us all embrace

Some ace aesthetics

And find beauty

Beyond the bone
