The resistance between enjoyment/shame and discovery/condemnation...

IF YOU PULL A LONG FACE : Part XXXV IF you pull a long croquet face While picking your teeth index and thumb over molar Canines will drip corrosive acids on knuckles and nails E'en if you lose anonymous self in a crowded alley If you pull a long twisted itching face All through childhood while making hay You risk being stung by bluebottles and fleas Right where you may not much like 'em to stay If you pull a long self-conscious face Guilt straining your under-your-wear during play Tell-tale signs beyond control those stains on lace Parents by Law only keep teens so long as they obey If you pull a long pre-matur� face E'en a Mahatma Gandhi married at pubert� At 36 assumes Brahmacharya celibate sacrifice To libido's extra-marital experience falls prey If you must pull a long pedo-de-filed priestly face Pull it not on homeless orphan or pious nun gone astray Tussle all alone the Devil in you from pantry to pillow-case Or else the Man in Hu-Man would drive the Wo-Man gay � T.

I would say that "all of the above" apply. Thirty-five times you have cautioned me not to "pull a long face", and I have complied. But I can see now that it would be quite a challenge to meet the kinds of targets. Unfortunately, I screwed up and posted another comment here.

A new set of poems is being generated to keep up with the times.
