Romance My Arse!


You don’t want me, it’s just my luck,
But I can’t give a flying ... fiddle.
You were too posh, so cute and glam,
You wanted love, I want to ... leave.

My arms held you, you gave your trust,
Until with force I had to ... shudder.
My brutish nature made you sick,
You would not even touch my ... face.

You said my mind was full of muck,
I said what’s wrong? We all should ... diddle.
Morality?  It’s all a sham.
Bend over prudes, it’s time to ... grieve.

I should find myself a hussy,
My only chance to get some ... love.

Author notes

This was written as an entry into the Erotic Challenge.

The rules were …

Erotic Humour

-Can not use the following words
fuck, slam, thrust, dick, pussy
-No letter 'T' in title
-15 line limit

I went with my own format. I find Sonnets to be some of the most romantic poetry around and so, as this was not supposed to be romantic, I wrote a “broken” sonnet (which gives us 14 lines rather than the maximum 15). As there were words that I could not use, I imagined the protagonist reciting a poem as he left the virginal object of his lustful desire and forcing himself not to swear

Rhyme Scheme
Aa(broken)Bb(broken)
Cc(broken)Dd(broken)
Aa(broken)Bb(broken)
Ee(broken)

Apart from the rhymes being “broken” the second line of each quatrain has an extra syllable.

------------------------------------------------------------------

While I would love to win this challenge it is all down to the points, which leads me to one of the things I found difficult (not a problem of the Challenge) I was travelling a lot and so doing things at the last minute, which resulted in me writing a piece late at night when I was knackered and entering a piece that wasn’t erotic!

However, if I have to blow my own trumpet, I guess I would say that I always tried to push things as far as I could and do something unexpected ...

I enjoyed the costume ball one as it gave me the opportunity to write from a different perspective. I did not enjoy the collaborations so much as it lead to logistical challenges but also, I feel, did not test individuals as much. Personally I would have a separate challenge for collaborations and keep this one for individual pieces.

    Its a shame your time is taken away from your pen Tattboy as you are one hell of a writer. One of the best things of my first year on AP is meeting Chantel and finally, after being hyped beyond the stars, reading you. I agree with you about collaborations though I do write in a collab team we all know each other and can instantly react to each others pens, but we have been together a long time and I think instant collabs with starngers especially in erotica is not only a challenge but nigh on impossible.

    As to this piece its brilliantly funny, I love the style. Substitution words are teriffic.

    Love and light

    Thank You!!

    Thank You for Your entry: Romance My Arse!
    This piece tugged hard and though I am not as talented when it comes to Erotic Humor (just like my story writing). I base on how it makes me feel, how reader friendly it is to digest but most of all- did it have cohesiveness I thoroughly enjoyed the story for You had me chuckling with this (broken) Sonnet- Love how You did the end words and I do understand their usage and imagined the man's restraint from swearing Gave me quite a laugh...Very Creative in form- I have always said I would rather have a root canal then pen a Sonnet whether broken or not While I was reading which I do several times before making a comment~ Images come to me in many forms~ while taking in Your words: I was able to envision the scenario-
    You had a challenge of not incorporating word bank (hardcore) also with line maximum count- Overall I would have certainly found it difficult myself to pen such a piece as this
    Execution Wonderful
    I will try to keep this one short but in summary
    Magnificent verse entered ~
    Challenge Matrix:
    spelling/grammar/punctuation- 20
    presentation/creativity- 20
    how well you handled the challenge-20
    "grab me" effect (how much did we enjoy reading this piece)- 20
    overall-20
    For a total of 100 points
    Sensual images & message You have brought forth

    Thank You for sharing Your Talent!
    Hope to read more...
    Best wishes to You in the challenge Sweet Soul
    **Judging will be done shortly...
    Many blessings too
    with much love & light~ Desire~*~

      Thank you very much for your very full comments.

      What I enjoy about contests is that they make me do something I may not normally do. I'm glad that it worked here.
