Excessive Sex Is Not Wise? ? ? Poem by Jim McGill

Excessive Sex Is Not Wise? ? ?

In geriatric gynaecology they advise
That: Excessive sex is not wise…

Grandma Fluckblucker, a lady of four score and ten
To her gynaecologist she was headed once again
A tedious chore she relished not in the least
Year on year the embarrassment never ceased
However, she endured; difficult one could agree
But it was for the sake of good health and security
When the doctor asked "Are you sexually active? "
Grandma took a stance that was most combative

"For ninety years, to tell it as I see it is my habit
So, sure I'm sexually active—like a rabbit
I got me a stud of twenty-five to hump
With vim and vigour we thump an' bump"
And with an even bigger smile she said
"We have a bang up time on my king size bed"

To which the doctor replied "This is a surprise
But, at a certain age excessive sex is not wise"
Quipped Grandma, "So what…if he dies, he dies! "

POET'S NOTES ABOUT THE POEM
For the last few months I had been experiencing a writer's block. For some reason, I don't know why, I was unable to focus on any sort of writing, let alone poetry. However, I came across this old joke and something sparked. I changed it around a little, added a bit more humour and bingo; I got a poem out of it. I am happy to announce that I am back to writing poetry again!
