Ode To A SCROTUM, Everyone... ODE!!!!!!

Me 2007
Jo's right on! http://jbknowles.livejournal.com/ The passage in that middle grade book is completely harmless, but our SCROTUM poetry WON'T be!!!!!

My Potent Ode:

In a bag of Lucky seeds
Spouts two balls most verboten
At least while some grownup reads
SCROTUM, SCROTUM, SCROTUM!

What’s to become of our Youth
If we let this word remain?
What foul word will we next set loose?
Vagina? Penis? …. Brain?


P.S. Doc got me goin' on poetry, so here's another one:


A fuss made over our bodies’ words
Makes this latest hubbub for the birds
Who knew some ol’ dog’s exposed anatomy
Would still blush cheeks in this century?
Who doesn’t poop and who doesn’t pee
Whether man or beast, bird or bee
Be it toilet, fire hydrant, or tree?

Okay, that is too funny! it is amazing, though, that anyone would find this word -- especially in that context -- offensive! Sigh.

Scrotum?
Ya know, I did not learn what that meant until I was 19, curious, and in college.

Re: Scrotum?
Well, I know for a fact that scrotums are NOT generic Tums. ;-D

I wish she'd used the word Balls instead. It's so much more picturesque. Cuter somehow.

Hope you don't mind if I read your poem to my husband. You're hilarious!

My Polish grammy won't even spit out the word, "Pee." (Or any euphemism for such an act). She asks her cat, "Do you need to shoo?" (not sure of the spelling...it's an eastern euro thing)

Hey kels, it's sbk from the blue board.

Loved your poems! I've been running around the house all day, yelling 'SCROTUM!' My son's about ready to crawl under a rock.

Great Scrotum Debate of 2007
I love the poem(s)!

And in the end: much ado about nothing, I think, too! SCROTUM! SCROTA! Sounds like Latin to me.

YAY, LYNNE!!!! So glad you dropped by!

I think the lesson learned here is if you're a dog, watch out for snakes.
