"I COME FROM THE BACK OF BEYOND"
(A public information poem. Physiologically accurate although I have used plain language for the baser of you.).
“I come from the back of beyond”
A saying from over the pond
I've heard it before
In cowboys I saw
A phrasing of which I'm now fond.
Because of my large prostate gland
When I take the old soldier in hand
Because I'm no hunk
These days my spunk
Refuses to shoot where |I planned.
When I played with myself on the bed
I'd often shoot over my head
Like salmon they'd leap
A memory I'll keep
Precious until I am dead.
After a couple of yanks
I now conclude all my wanks
To find as \I came
The pleasure's the same
But literally I'm firing blanks.
I've taken all this in my stride
It's something you'll note |I don't hide
My ejaculation's
A marvellous sensation
Fulfilling, although it has dried.
At first this had me dismayed
To not see your efforts displayed
But doctors decide
That Finasteride's
The cause of this shoot retrograde.
It seems that your seminal load
Get's sown where it shouldn't be sowed
But enters your bladder
Because it had had a
Reversal down the wrong road.
It's perfectly harmless is this
And makes its way out when you piss
The feelings the same
The instant you came
And doesn't detract from your bliss.
So one day you'll play with your wand
Try not to end up feeling conned
You might think things bleak
Cos it no longer leaks
But you come from the back of beyond.

Thankyou, Nigel, Stephen and Jon.. I fear I have touched on a taboo.
