contemplating the reproductive cycle of snails

For D Connolly -- thanks for the inspiration

She spent her afternoons

contemplating

hermaphrodites --

although it's not half

as dirty as it sounds --

it might be harder to explain

than internet porn,

but not half as

entertaining

as saying, boss, I'm sorry,

this work is so

forlorn,

I'd rather spend

my time learning,

how baby snails

are born.

KL I was contemplating the life cycle of snails, but they moved so slowly I fell asleep, did I miss anything??? maybe this is why I don't understand internet porn... oh well loved your poem and I think you and Dani could write books of poetry off each others comments and poems... yep, great fun!!!

Thanks. I love it when I can spring off of someone's comment and have some fun.

Giggling here. What could be harder to explain than internet porn, KL? I mean, it's almost like a Mr. Potato Head for adults, isn't it? The people are not REAL anyway! LOL When work is THAT boring, you really have no choice but to write a poem. I enjoyed this, KL. Lydi**

I felt instantly inspired by D Connolly's comments -- like the old days with Frieda. Man, that girl inspired me.
