If you can make sense of this, you are a better psychoanalyzer than I am a poet. ;-)

Oblique



Sometimes, while feeling oblique,

it's as though, the universe,

has gone and sprung a leak.


If you're allowed, to take a peek,

you'll discover under it all, weak,

what you see is what you seek.


When paddling up down a creek,

from overexertion you reek,

deodorize before you streak.


While you may think this is oblique,

it all depends upon what you seek.


For a boat made of heavy teak,

will sink 100 years without a leak.


On a tangent, you smear a streak,

seeking the forever slight sneak.


Finding in the end what you seek,

there's no sharper than a bird's beak,

a tool that is tried and unique.


So, never tweak an oblique,

you might exceed your pique.

Sometimes what the poets intends turns out differently in the eyes of the reader. A bit of fun here, well done.

Oblique... just like the term, your poem is done in an inexplicit way Ron 😆

One could make a cogent argument that this bit of thematic prosady is straight out (no pun intended) out of a penile (no pun intended) colony. But as long as I started it, I figured I might as well stick it out (no pun intended) and seem to have intuited the driving thrust (no pun intended) intended. I could say that there is a vas deferens between this poem and your previous efforts (no pun intended), but if you'll meatus (no pun intended) in the middle for the sake of compromise, it matters little. I also seem to infer that you chose this subject matter deliberately, on prepuce (no pun intended), despite your disclaimer, although I admit it was a seminal (no pun intended) idea that soon had me prostate (no pun intended) with mirth. Your humor is obviously going from bladder (no pun intended) to worst, I rectum (maybe pun intended)! PS: My shrink tells me he has openings this afternoon between 2 and 3 BM (sic)...poor fellow. And as for my medical knowledge, it's a matter of pubic record. And now, having said my piece, I think I'll quietly depart for a long-awaited holiday to the far-flung Islands of Langerhans (pun definitely intended) with my good friend and colleague, Dr. Osgood Schlatter. :)))

When I wrote the poem, I was thinking of oblique as a mathematical term that just happened to rhyme with a lot of other words that I threw in a nonsense way.

Little did I know that the image that I picked showing a little bit of the abdominal oblique inner and outer muscles, would slant everyone's view toward the poem. I ought to be ashamed of myself. ;-) Or, maybe not. ;-)

Oblique, indeed. Now, that's a graphic. Damn, knew a guy with one of those, but only heard it as rumor. Always wondered if it served him well.

Those obliques are sphincters,
so to speak,
but that's no reason to go spastic,
or put tongue in cheek.
And when it inflates,And cums your way,
My best advice is, do not freak.
