its in mans genes, DNA
where he has grown
ready to procreate
consuming much of his time
on the how and maybe of it
it is his seed
he boldly offers
fertilization
the mysterious womb of life to give
when the rigid
thought process becomes turgid and severely
bent out of shape
straining with midnight's itch
taking pride
charming the woman flower
diluting passions flow into the walls of heaven
the walls close around
the intruder
craving the touch of the life giver
ahhh . . .
there are a few things which cause us to ponder
some are . . .
the ways of the birds in the sky
a tongue flicking,  tail rattling diamondback rattlesnake
a roiling, boiling ocean
but best of all
are the look in a woman's eyes
moments before
