Orgasmic Groans Poem by gershon hepner

How loud should an orgasmic groan
be, and whom is it intended to arouse?
Should it be heard when you’re alone,
or do you make it to excite your spouse,
or better still your lover, so
that when you are alone you will not make
a sound in case your neighbors know
what you are doing by yourself? To fake
the groan is something you will only
do when you have a lover or a spouse.
Why do it if you’re really lonely,
and there is no one with you in your house?
But if you do, I must say I
admire you enormously, since you
have nailed the moment with your cry,
however solitary your screeching screw.

Inspired by a poem I found on Poemhunter, “Orgasmic Groans, : by James B. Earley:

Somewhere beyond horizon's reach
Incessant waves lap at her feet
She heaves and moans orgasmic groans
Her body sways to passion's beat

Pulsating wildly in such throes
And though the sounds are loud and clear
She doesn't seem at all to mind
Who might see or who might hear

And cast some disapproving eye
Or watch in voyeuristic lust
Her silhouette upon the waterbed
Simply doing what she must

To satisfy all she's ever held
Within her fickle grip
I for one..have known her joy
On a cruise aboard that ship.
