Raven skies blanket the mountain
Inky water laps the shore
The evening’s fire casts no light
Now curled in shared warmth
Will there be fog in the morn?
Dreamless sleep awaits
I am not sure mine is any better...
moist makes me wince in porn poetry.

certainly agree with everyone on the overall cheapening effect MOST words have when writing sex.
it's all the more important in this genre because even one distasteful word can sour a scene or break immersion. taste is already subjective enough, much less worrying about words that can be contextually distasteful as well.
but dammit there are only so many ways to have a boner!
don't worry bros. we gotchu.

No I definitely wouldn't use "bempety bump" in a poem.

This Poem Is Titled "Heat"
My throbbing man-meat
may only be gristle
to the hot flaps
of your she-box, opened
like the petals of Venus
for my muscle-pumped love gun,
Baby. Make sure
your legs are spread for me. (I am at a loss for an appropriate emoji here. Is there a :gag: emoji?)
Thank you, Simon. Those are truly awful "sexy" words and phrases.

"I am a freak,
I like the girls with the boom,
I once got busy in a Burger King bathroom."
Although Gregory Jacob's personal banker or portfolio manager might say otherwise.

it's really not meant to be taken so seriously, pelegrino
having said that, it can be a useful reminder to writers that what might be their first word-choice isn't necessarily the best one for their poem. if you, as a writer, want your work to be received well, it's sometimes worth considering the reactions your words evoke. what might be a decent poem can be ruined by lazy, uninspired or simply poor judgement.
i am not saying anyone should never use any of the words we're coming up with here, in what's intended as a light-hearted thread; context is everything. and we, as writers, are perhaps a little more jaded than your non-writing readers - a word that might be terribly clichéd to us might still have the impact you desire for your intended audience.
so lighten up, dude... there has to be at least one word that makes you mentally wince when you come across it, surely?
right now i am considering how to write a piece that makes the 'c' word (gawd, i hated typing that) appealing - or at least not obnoxious.
Very well said Ms. Butters. Might I suggest something of the sort....."Above him she had squatted, eyes fixed in a stare, she slid her slippery moist (cat) deliberately and nervously over his (bat). When she finally accepted all that she could - her eyes rolled back and her lip it did quiver.".........
Hmmmmm leaves one wanting. Perhaps there is a better CNC word worth considering.

The eggplant emoji came to mind but isn't on this threads menu. However, it seems there are a number of fruit, vegetable and other options.
