It's up To The Double X to Promote Safe Sex

by PygmyPuff   Jun 15, 2006


The lust that comes with a crush,
Or the energy that flows through your veins,
Causes insanity like no other,
And may force you to become an unwanted mother.

The heat rises, and the tension too.
As the hormones are pumped throughout.
No time to stop, to get necessary protection.
The only care is that sensual connection.

But with no previous knowledge,
And no understanding of his past,
Now you share his secret pains,
Caused by believing this was a game.

The Y Chromosome calls for uneducated thinking,
So we need to straighten ourselves up.
And have our own provisions of need,
For none of us know when we shall perform this deed.

No matter if we are active,
Or waiting until marriage,
The time is now to be prepared,
It may have been a scam when he said he cared.

    It makes sense and it is a very good poem. It does not descriminate but advises. Quality work.

    Hmm, A very different topic which made it very interesting to read. In a few places you got a little wordy on the last sentance of every paragraph trying to rhyme. I sugest you try combining words together to make the sllyable count more flowy! Even in poems that don't requir sllyable counts you still need to make sure that the slyables in every line are about the same as the above paragraph or it will throw the poem off! I loved how you kept an open mind with such a difficult subject and I very much enjoyed it. 5/5

    "Caused from believeing this was a game."
    i'd replace 'from' with 'by' and believing is spelled like that, without the third 'e'.

    Why is this poem in the slang section, doesn't seem like it's the right place?

    Anyhow, I thought the rhyme scheme was pretty good, though some lines were much longer than the others, which leads me to believe that you were trying to fit the words is necessary to make a rhyme work or to get a point across.

    I liked the message of the poem for the most part. I do think that consideration of the consequences of sex is very important, as is protection and honesty about sexual pasts. I'm not sure that I agree that all people with Y chromosomes are irresponsible, but I can get the point.
