Now who could possibly complain about this? Seems pretty unselfish to me. But I think once would be more than enough, so thank you for not spoiling us all by making it a habit... like too much chocolate cake, it's better to enjoy just a single piece. Well written, tho surprisingly bold.

    Thanks very much, Phyllis. Yes, the Rogue definitely puts his best foot (or whatever body part is necessary) forward when he's actually with someone. The problems occur when he does only allow it to be a one off occurrence...and they want more. ;-)

    I appreciate it!

    Well, then, the women should do what I always did... tie him up in the cellar and whip him till he performs. :)
reply by the author on 24-Jan-2014
    That sounds pretty good, actually...;-)

    Spoken like a true pussy slave. A real rogue wouldn't bother pleasing his "date" with his tongue, but would dive right in with a slam, bam, not-even-thank-you ma'am.

    That's what makes this rogue more dangerous than the others. He knows how to play the game, and will lose a battle to win the war.
reply by Phyllis Stewart on 24-Jan-2014
    Lose enough battles, and you'll stay forever chained in some chick's basement... or at least be a pussy-whipped husband doing the dishes while she watches the woman's channel movies about what bastards men are. And you never see it coming. Yes, we're THAT smart. :)

    Velvet chains, m'lady, and none are strong enough to hold a shrewd rogue who knows when to get out, and one who has the wherewithal and strength to cut loose when he's had enough. ;-)

    And leave his kids fatherless to roam the streets while his poor wife has to work two jobs cuz he skipped out of the state to avoid his child support. Yeah, a real class act. :)
reply by the author on 24-Jan-2014
    Who said anything about kids? I'm afraid you're extrapolating a bit, my dear Phyllis. Latex is the rogue's friend, and this version doesn't leave them with anything in the oven except their own animosity towards him. :-)

    Smart women know how to use a needle with fools like you, and then take 'em to court and take their house and take savings and take their job and by then, no woman will give them the time of day. At least Rogue is smart enough not to believe their favorite line, "I'm on the pill." I'll give you credit for that. :)

Now, you, my friend, are getting toooooo deep there. I can't believe you wrote this. This is definitely something my old self would have written and probably been in trouble for, LOL You know, for those women, who really enjoy this type of sexual activity, you have them squirming in their seat. Just shame on ya!! LOL

    Yes, the Rogue can get pretty deep, literally and figuratively. Thank you very much, my friend.

Hey, David

Without a doubt, you are crazy! Anyone that can write as you do with such skillful use of words and combinations of words to create layered meanings, double entendre, etc., is just amazing. It will be interesting to see how the matron hens fire back.

You've provided us with another fun read in the continuing banter battles of the Rogue and the chicks.

    Thanks so much, Ray. I'd be interested in seeing the Swiss account of THIS encounter. Seriously, though, thank you, my friend. I was willing to move on for awhile, but received enough "blowback" last night to inspire me to more shenanigans.

    There's nothing better than fun banter amongst friends. :)

This work has reached the exceptional level

You posted it! AHAHAHAHA! This is so great I don't even know where to start pointing out all the greatness. The internal rhyme? The beautiful meter? The hilariously funny content?

Or can I just say that this is brilliant? That it's masterfully written by an absurdly gifted poet?

I'll just say it all. Good job, my friend, and frocking outrageously funny!

    My brother, THANK YOU! I appreciate it. Yes, I was reticent to post it, but considering the tenor and tone of some of the recent ripostes, I decided to. I appreciate you aligning with the winning side. :)

Marillion: And, good morning to you, too! When I saw the picture of the tongue, I knew what would follow in the words. You did not disappoint. However, my heart is slowly giving out, have lived with coronary artery disease for the last 17 years and now in congestive heart failure. My time is limited and having sex is not allowed unless I want it to be my final earthly experience. . .I weigh that every day but wish to stay alive a little longer. I may have to quit reading your poems. I think you understand. Great write! livelylinda

    Thank you so much, Linda, and I'm so sorry to hear of your heart issues. I have a family history of the same. I really appreciate you taking a look, and I promise that much of my other work will not take a toll. I'm glad you're still tilting the pen, my friend.

A true rouge indeed! On the button, or so to speak. A funny poem, again, good style and flowed well. You certainly know how to get your readers creative or other, juices flowing. AJ.

    Thank you very much, my friend. I wonder if Derek Dick would be this to use. Perhaps A Gentleman's Excuse Me...oh, he already did that one.

    I appreciate it, TJ.

I know I would be in for a fun romp when I saw the warning. Usually I skip because most are lacking in level of linguistic eloquence and revel in the lewd. You made me chuckle as I read your naughty rebuttal. I'm sure your victims would find delight in your skill. I, however, can not help but wonder if you and Don Juan are not one and the same and have come back a from the pits of hell or are you on vacation from dear Ines' death bought redemption to regale us with your lascivious, lecherous, and oddly luscious tales of love and lust.

    Donya, thank you for your wonderful review and flattering comments. The Rogue does consider himself to be a Byronic hero of sorts, so he greatly appreciates your appreciation of his more lascivious side (and this is the alter ego, so David's not speaking of himself in the 3rd person). I really enjoyed your review. Thank you. This one hasn't, I fear, met with the same enthusiasm as others due to the more graphic nature.

reply by Donya Quijote on 24-Jan-2014
    Now I get the connection between your alter ego and the ghost of Lord Byron. I'm dense sometimes. He wrote a poem too about that infamous Spanish rogue. Now I must trot off to rediscover if Byron's Don was damned as Tirso's was or redeemed as Zorrilla's was.
reply by the author on 24-Jan-2014
    At least as damned, I assure you. ;-)
reply by Donya Quijote on 24-Jan-2014
    Alas, it seems that Byron died before he could finish his rogue's tale. leaving it instead to the reader to decide his fate. It seemed that early on this tale of treachery that Juan's predilections were briefly tempered by true love's embrace until Death interceded and returned the rogue to former habit. But as the tale draws to its conclusion could it that love again has ensnared our hero's heart? What of Aurora and the hold she has on him? And what horrors does the Friar's ghost foreshadow? Is it any wonder why then that good girls love a bad boy? And yet, is it any wonder why in the end when these bad boys breaks a good girl's heart they find themselves forever tormented in the deepest, darkest, most torturous level of hell? I have skimmed this lengthy poem. But I do find it intriguing. Perhaps someone as skilled as Byron and as knowledgeable could bring it to a reasonable and worthy conclusion.
reply by the author on 24-Jan-2014
    What a great thought! I do find it interesting that the bad boy's commeuppance is brought about by their own actions.

Now I've had a lesson on cunnilingus. It's high time. More excellent metered and rhymed verse too. Say, what to we do when they squirt? Kenny

    Ha! Thanks so much, Kenny! The squirters will have to be reserved for their own poem, but you bring up a good question. ;-)

This is an interesting poem from the author. I am reading this on the recommendation of pipersfancy. She says it is brilliant, and I agree.

Dear writer: you truly are a linguist. And very truly a cunning linguist. Anybody who can play around with the WORD, is.

I wouldn't say you speak in tongues but you can communicate with one tongue. If you can make your subject scream and shriek, you have really sent your message across.
