I've returned from a writers' retreat in Big Sur. Cheryl Strayed and other fabulous writers (all fun, funny, warm, and humble) inspired us, as did the remarkably beautiful setting.
To my friends in the U.S., I hope it's a safe and celebratory Independence Day.
To my friends elsewhere, I hope it's a safe and pleasant week.
To all, please enjoy this re-post. I hereby dedicate it to John Hancock. After-all, his was biggest.
You can't have a poem about a big cock without Martha sneaking in to gawk.
ReplyDeleteNice rhyme, and accurate too. Martha, Martha, Martha - she kills the mood every time.
DeleteYou have a real gift, my friend. Of course, the name John Hancock would need to be a subject for your erotic poetry.
ReplyDeleteHope you are having a great weekend.
Thank you, Cheryl. Yeah, John's last name writes its own poem in a big way. Smiles.
DeleteHappy week.
Thanks for the history lesson, Robyn. I always wondered if John Hancock was famous for anything but his signature and now I know! He was Secretary of State for groping, teasing and chewing! (Personally, I'd ask you to go easy on the chewing even if it is your constitutional right.)
ReplyDeleteHe stood out in every way, GB.
DeleteGood to know John H. was more than just a fancy signature. I heard old Ben got around quite a bit and kept the ladies entertained.
ReplyDeleteA woman likes a sharp wit, Jono. And I'm certain he must've had other assets.
DeleteAs always I look forward to you adding a bit of delightful naughtiness to the holidays.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Stephen. I really like your phrase "delightful naughtiness." Happy 4th!
DeleteOnly you, my love.
ReplyDeleteLove,
Janie
Only because you didn't go there first, my friend.
DeleteLove ya.
Martha sure has to gawk, the closest she'll ever get to any hancock
ReplyDeleteLOL. Martha has prowess when it comes to gawking. And she's probably also good at stalking.
DeleteWell, alrighty.
ReplyDeleteLookit the tighty-whiteys.
They fit just right
DeleteNice and tight
White as can be
Don't make him laugh til he pees
That wouldn't please
Geeze!
You took it out, you laid the bait.
ReplyDeleteBut surely that signature was to overcompensate.
Hiding his insecurity
By signing with such mock surety.
Particularly because it is in his name,
To see disappointment was his shame.
You're likely right
DeleteYou often are
Hancock's was biggest and smallest
by far.
Well this is an interesting piece of history...
ReplyDeleteOh the things they don't teach us when we're kids, Sheena-kay. Smiles.
DeleteYour "Free to bear arms..." line was my favorite. Thanks for the smiles, Robyn. Happy 4th to you! :)
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you liked it, Connie.
DeleteI hope you've had a great holiday weekend.
Brilliantly saucy! lol!!!! Big Sur is gorgeous and I've only seen it from Highway 1. Was it at Esalan?
ReplyDeleteYes. You haven't been, JoJo? It's a slice of heaven.
DeletePS Thanks for the praise.
excellent version of American history. Martha in the mix - cheers to all. Oh Robyn, you are a gem unto your own. Happy 4th and beyond my friend.
ReplyDeleteThank you, dear friend.
DeleteI hope you've been having a great holiday weekend and 4th.
Gives new meaning to the saying, " give me your John Hancock" doesn't it?:) I'm now feeling like I'm 12 since I'm giggling. I so enjoy your poetry and writing.
ReplyDeleteYour comments always make me giggle, Birgit. Thank you, and thank you for the new pick-up line ("Give me your John Hancock.")
DeleteHappy 4th, Robyn. I'm eating a corndog, drinking a beer and listening to what sounds like WWIII outside. There are worse descriptions of happiness.
ReplyDeleteYes, much worse, and I love corndogs. Perhaps that's because they're phallic, but they also taste good.
DeleteBe well, Geo.
Thanks for sharing this post. Happy to know good info.
ReplyDeleteOh sweetie, you define "good information" very loosely. Hint: Don't teach children about US history based on this blog post.
DeleteCheers and you're welcome.
Your celebration sparked my imagination.
ReplyDeleteI need water!
Haha. Yeah, that picture in the upper right corner (Neil Patrick Harris' bottom half) has me sweating too. Thanks, Dixie.
DeleteOh My!! Such greatness! Cracking up at the Martha photobomb. The poem was hot! I almost feel like I need a cigarette after reading that and I don't smoke. LOL!
ReplyDeleteHope your holiday was a great one. I am sunburned but it was worth it just relaxing at the pool.
I was absolutely in AWE the few times I've driven through Big Sur. So gorgeous. I envy your time spent there.
That you, Holli. I almost feel like I need a cigarette after writing these poems too. And I don't smoke either.
DeleteGlad you got some rest and relaxation in the sun. Yes, Big Sure is awe-inspiring.
...It's so inspiring I added the "e". Big Sure - doesn't quite have the same feel. =)
DeleteI hope you had a blast at the retreat. I would love to go to one, one of these days. I bet you returned inspired. Love ya!
ReplyDeleteIt's about time John H. and his Johnson got the tribute they deserved, and it's too bad they had to lie low for a couple hundred years before they were pecked up by bonny Robyn!
ReplyDeleteLove me some TIGHTy whities!
ReplyDeleteI think i remember this one. All this erotica is getting me flustered!
ReplyDeleteHope you had a productive retreat in Big Sur! Ode to Jack Kerouac!
Martha's looking festive. :) How fun that you went to a writing retreat!
ReplyDeleteI just wish they would quite photoshopping my abs onto the covers of these erotic novels.
ReplyDeleteOh, a writer's retreat. Keep honing those skills, you.
ReplyDeleteSo you can write something as uhm...thought provoking as this always. :D
