Ah young girl
If you speak not a word
How will it matter

I’m an ancient man
Sometime Roman senator
Who wants no more
Than to know your youth
At leisure

So let those old crones
Drone on and on
To the shallow mob
While we enjoy our pleasures

As you for my gold
Unfold on this bed
Petal by petal
Till I flower

SB,

Thank you

Face it

The rich through time
Have bought the young
To get it up without regret
Less suffering

Thanks again

John

smile

it reminded me of the courtesan...

and perhaps I, as well as history, romanticizes that--but as I understand the practice and premise, the courtesan woman was allowed more freedom and individuality than the more "respected" (socially acceptable) woman.

I think we agree.

I just found it sexy.

But then? My hormones are marching liking Trojans. (pun certainly intended)

thank you for the prompt reply, which only added to my enjoyment

SB,

And who is to say
shocking as it might be
there were not those
who enjoyed the roll

Have you seen "Valmont"?

One of my favorite movies.

Since you and I are apparently the only ones here.

*laughing*
