Poking

Rating: 5.0


To make you pay
for what you have done
and are doing,
increasingly poking
is surveillance.

You feel and are ex,
and won't appreciate
being asked to fight.

For the sake of defence
(or attack)
ban fags:
cut poking
to catching you smoking.

Poking is an interesting word. Do pokies poke? If you feel like a poke, what happens to those who are impotent? ++10
