Edmund Wilson, the famous critic, wrote about his threesome with Edna St. Vincent Millay. This came out in his biography. The thing I found most interesting in this particular article is how closely tied sex and writing were for Mr. Wilson. I’d tend to agree with him — the sexual urge and the writing urge are remarkably…[Read more]

There is some foundation to your speculation, I can see that. However, we could take it a step further and say that the actual sex was a metaphor for something else entirely, and she was writing about that versus an obvious romp with two men. Couldn’t we? Don’t you find that sex can represent so many different things, Mr. Orgy…

  Well, I’m glad that I could at least add some sexual imagery to the poem. I can agree that the poem was a metaphor for something else entirely and your point is well taken.

    Thank you for taking it “well.” I’m glad you pointed out its sexual origins, because, well, that’s hot. As an artist, I’ve had a lot of instances in which I write about an event using metaphor, but the purpose of writing about the event was not to chronicle the event itself, but to expound on the universal possibilities and connection within the…[Read more]

      I don’t necessarily see the poem as sexual, although I can see that layer, and adding that layer added a lot of depth to the poem for me, in particular because of the Puritanistic thought that sexual forays will burn you out.

I haven’t thought a lot about the predator aspect, but I have thought about it in regards to kink. I do agree with you, it is far to ‘easy’ to generalize and offer a pat answer.

Wanted to introduce us with a short story of my own. Hope you guys don’t mind and if you like, Alex and me have many more to come.

Ah the teacher fantasy come true, I always and teacher and professor fantasies, I think I would have passed out on the spot if any of them had actually kissed me! How powerful this must have been for you.

These are absolutely beautiful. The last one is particularly striking.

  I love these, too. The one with the pre-cum coming out of the cock head makes my mouth water. Then again, so does the first and last ones.

I can’t stop looking at the first, just go back through every detail, again and again feeling it more each time.

Seeing this again makes me miss MrTinkertoys. His post was the first time I had seen these. I think each woman just becomes progressively more irresistible, more beautiful. I always feel good after watching them.
