Hello Grasshopper,
                  Very neatly done. It reminds me of a couple of reports I vaguely remember reading years ago. One involved Lord Longford ( I think) who had attempted to analyse the qualitative effect of pornography by measuring the size of the observer´s erection. I think the conclusion was the greater the erection, the more damaging the pornography. The second involved some bishop who gave evidence at a pornography trial in which he swore that exposure to the item in question had had a corrupting influence on his morals. This sex thing really is full of problems, isn´t it?


Best wishes,   Mike

The Woman's Circle


Faith takes the chair, and switches off her phone,
'First, gifts for our poor sisters overseas:
Joy has donated three warm wraps, and Joan,
a book entitled 'Women: Off Your Knees! '
Amanda checks her hair, Sue clears her plate
and Caitlin thrums her throat to signal hush:
'Anent last months pornography debate
I'll show a tape to illustrate this trash.'

Faith views the tilting pricks and shaven groins,
tuts with the others at the sordid scene,
the squalid pumping of the actors' loins.
Stern-faced she watches like a widowed queen
and feels with pique, as personal affront,
the creeping liquefaction of her cunt.
