erastesI'm sure a lot of you have seen the hoo-ha about the word SCROTUM (OMG don't read that your eyes will melt) in a children's book and the call to have the book banned as a result

There has been wank. Unsurprisingly. LitWank. LibraryWank. Sigh. Sometimes I think fandom is sane.
Anyhoo. Charles Finlay asked people to post poems including the word Scrotum on this post.

Go read. I lost my tea several times. There are limericks. There are Odes. There's a fucking SONNET for goodness sake. All ... brilliant.
I've missed the deadline but I was inspired to write:
"It's a scrotum, dear boy," said his mother.
"But it's rude so you must use another,
"Call them cobblers or balls,
"Or male profiteroles,
"But use scrotum and you'll annoy Big Brother"

Your cock will just wibble,
Your clitoris shrivel.
Your vagina will simply ask: WHY???
