Inbetween Mars and Venus

Inbetween Mars and Venus

A Poem by Chris Shaw
"

This is Saturday humour, with apologies to anyone I've offended about their politics or manhood:) Also thanks to Lorry and Dave

"
What is it about men?
What is it about women?
So many times it's been said,
it's a constant surprise to me
that relationships ever survive,
as many of them are doomed to die.

Yet I'm a firm believer in
Men are from Mars, women from Venus.
And there's that other place,
the one that comes between us.
Yes that's it, the Planet Penis.
If anything's going to c**k things up,
it's that nonentity.

When I mentioned this to Lorry
in a running commentary he said to me
"Trump would make a great president there,
and without doubt is the biggest dick of the lot".
I agree wholeheartedly,
he has befitting hair for the job
and qualifies with his wandering knob.

In case you think this is a plot against men,
think again, I love you all,
which covers you big 'uns, the deflated, the shy,
the persistent and the small.
You'll all remain dear to me
so long as you don't interfere with me :)

I know and I believe dear Chris.
"You'll all remain dear to me
so long as you don't interfere with me :"
The above lines are true. Six sisters, three daughters and a crazy mother. Step-dad taught me wisely. Just smile and hope the storm goes by quickly. Wonderful words shared my friend.

Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, should ever come between a man and his penis. From a very early age the male of the species becomes very attached to his member, more so in teenage years when thoughts of older women flood the brain, and this attachment only lessens with the onset of old age numbness, when the grip becomes less reliable.
A 96 year old man was asked at what age he stopped playing with himself, his reply, " I'll tell you when it happens"
