Masturbation

Would prose do?
Or should i tell a tale?

Would words do?
Or should i take off the veil?

Are you a naturalist, culturalist or ethicist?
Well it doesn’t matter for we all take our turn.

Do you see it?
Yes, a coin, double sided.

The dos and don’ts, the poles and holes
All wet from shags of techniqued caress.

A slimy finish
A sweaty climax
But no firm grip
Or set standards.

Just masturbation, a recall of no conclusion.
