Geeze, those hands are beautiful,
and intelligent looking…
hey, where have they been?
and…
why are you making them clean?
Disease prevention, sure,
soft to the touch, perhaps,
if that soap contains a softener…
but why?
I would not think,
and just enjoy them-
and I know you’d enjoy that best-
pure animal, you know,
better for sex and orgasms…
but…
well, I’m sorry,
I cannot help but analyze things;
I hope it doesn’t detract from the romance…
here…
hold my hands;
yes, a bit rough, maybe even dumb
compared to yours,
but these hands are attached to my mind,
and,
better yet,
they are attached to my heart.
May I exercise my mind a moment further
before I allow my heart free reign?
Alright, two minutes, that’s all, I promise…
Clean, soft, why…
what guarantees are you seeking-
love and security?
Of course.
With us guys it's providing the two in reverse order.
There, that wasn’t so painful, now was it!
Alright,
now prepare your hands for the beast in me,
as I take you back in time
to a Pleistocene beach
and ravish you…

somebody got carried away by the picture and the thought of touching...maybe even more than just touching
i enjoyed this...gave me some insight into the male way of thinking, lol. great take on the prompt, wayne, but i think the poem could perhaps do with a little editing to make it tighter. but then, it was most thought-provoking and made me chuckle! thank you for this entry.

thank you, Nicolette, if I had a cheerful counter response at hand I'd challenge you with it, but you'll just have to be satisfied with my cheerfulness alone... lol I will, of course, go back over these... in about ten years... I'm glad you found it somehow worthwhile to sift through the literary shortcomings to arrive at the piece's main goals... here's a rose for your efforts...

This piece really had me smiling. I guess if this had have been me you would have been wearing my hands around your neck as a token of my......
. I like the analyctic style though, it made for some very humourous pictures to develop in my minds eye. Very well done indeed and i wish you the very best in the contest.
