Interlude: This poem was created for a poetry class at
San Diego State University by a very curious and enthusiastic Sophmore named Brittany.
Poem: "Safety First"
From Japan to the USA
They claim their place
In every bathroom or bed stand.
Lying within worn, cardboard boxes
Taunting all that stare
Embarassed by their intentions.
The perk function they perform;
To bring intense,
Erotic, ribbed pleasure
To those
otherwise not meant to experience
Such sesual, twisted touch.
With the strength and Endurance
Of the Trojans invading Rome
They protect patrons each day.
By limiting the populations of teenage mothers,
They serve a necessary purpose for society
Often going without appreciation
Tossed aside after each use.
Representing all colors of the rainbow
All flavors of fruit
Chocolate, root beer,
Scented lilac, tropical breeze,
Nonoxynol-9 enhanced.
They make safety a carnival
Of lightly lubricated latex!
They've come to fill
A major role in many
relationships
Knowing no
discrimination,
They aid anyone willing to spend
A few crucial dollars.
Evolving from their original form of sheep skin,
They are the latest
In sexual exploration
Enjoyed by both old and young,
Single and married.
Small, large
Pinch the tip,
Roll them on.
Worldwide
They are the perfect fit.
Hope you enjoyed this demostration of literary creativity!!
