Vanilla Sex
Come
Dine on me
Dip your tongue
Delicately
Into my cunt
I offer fine cream
Warm and fragrant
Rich and smooth
A dish for kings
Or slaves
Come
Swirl your tongue
Over and around
And into my swollen lips
Come
Lick with lingering delight
My luscious perfume
Cynthia Buell Thomas

I missed this one ha ha... and I thought you were Mrs Prim and Proper Cynthia !! ha ha... it's a hot poem and I like the word unsurprisingly heh heh Way to go Cynth.......TC XX
Louis Armstrong liked the C word so much he sang 'and i think to myself what a wonderful word'
I remember using the word cunt in texas to some racist anti immigrant toffs - their tongues swept the floor as up to that point i was articulate.
a slice of erotica like this helps a dull wednesday.

It's one of 'those' words isn't it... I liked the poem; evocative and to the point. I understand some people find it offensive and of course it's been used as a term of abuse and as such is loaded.
It partly reminds me of when I saw the Vagina Monologues a few years ago, when the final invitation from the performers was for the audience to join in saying 'that' word loudly to celebrate it.
Cheers Cynthia. Iain ;o)
I can probably see where you are coming from Graham. I must admit that 'cunt' isn't a word that I have ever considered poetic. I have used it once but it was in a funny rant - it brings out that wicked school boy humour in me - sorry Cynthia - I can't help it. However, it is good to read a poem occasionally that shakes you up. There is so much 'samey' stuff on here. When someone sticks their head over the parapet, you have to applaud them for their bravery and putting cunt to one side, there is much of merit in the poem.
Crikey! When I read this for the first time I thought you'd had a turn Cynthia. Then I starting reading all the female comments applauding your bravery and I was doubly astonished.
I have never considered the word in any way attractive (usually reserving it for acknowledging BMW drivers). I would certainly never use it in my work, assuming I would be thought crude. However it does make a woman (using it) sound worldly.
Brave perhaps, but like Janet, I thought it lacked imagination as a piece. And I think Ben and Gerry's is better.

Wonderful stuff Cynthia...although my eye brow is raised, or is that cocked mmmm, at certain of your admirers...
no matter,I this love this stong, free feminine poetry ... the word cream is just as wonderful as cunt in my view... but as they say if its nice its probably bad for you...

No-one's ever told me my knob was old fashioned before! Somehow 'Cock' or 'Dick' don't do it for me (so to speak) and all the other euphemisms just stand out like a sore...whatever, when in a poem. There is something inherently silly about willies.
:)

Lovely juicy poem. I'm not as brave as you. I wanted to call my Two Love Songs "Masturbation Song" but chickened out. Maybe I'll repost one day!

Isobel -
"Nice one Cythia. I think we should make this into a treaty and get all males to sign up ....the main principal being 'though shalt dine on me....' "
- some of us don't need much persuasion at all :P
Cock or dick, John. Knob is very old fashioned - only used in connection with butter or cheese...
Well, you can put me down as a 'yesss'...although I was indelibly scarred by an early girlfriend who found the word mortally offensive and I don't think ever quite forgave me for using it.
I have happy memories of my five year old brother calling me that over Sunday lunch...instantly I knew it wasn't going to be me that got into trouble over that one!
Not sure how it would work the other way round...so to speak. What's accepted poetic terminology for knobs these days?
: )

PS Fine brave poem by the way.

I think I would have liked to see a different word used here purely for a reader to be able to use their imagination.
It is raunchy yet smooth and creamy too and i love it Cynthia because of that.

come on cynthia - tell it like it is - don't beat about the BUSH. great poem AND amazingly, I've also got one in my list called Vanilla Sex - I'll have to see if it's not altogether to pervy to post :)
I too like the word cunt. Too many people are offended by it! I enjoyed reading this Cynthia, it's very good. x
I like the word cunt. You're right, I've had this discussion recently and when you get into the realms of 'lady-garden' and other ridiculousness it all ends in laughter.Rachelx
I'm tired of wondering whether I should or I shouldn't. So I shall. I use the word 'cunt' in the greatest respect for its etymology, and the nicety of its exact meaning. Any other word is farcical.

Wow Cynthia! I was just eating strawberries and cream when I read this, had to put my bowl down :-)
I think 'cunt' fits in perfectly. It's used in the right context for the poem and anyway, what else is there that can be both sexy and sexually assertive as this poem is? 'Front bum'? 'Twopence'? 'Quim'? Haha - I think not.
I like to see any writer taking a risk with language or imagery because like Isobel says, when someone does do something that shakes things up a bit, you do have to applaud them for their bravery.
