            ...in a 16th Century pond

The frog cocks his head
swiving on the lily pads,
throat full of minnows,

leering eyes bulging.
The frog cocks his head
at the zipping of the fly,

opening his great japing hole,
he spits and smiles at his release.
The frog cocks his head

letting the waves lap at the lilies
that still rock beneath him,
whetting him with cove water.

The frog cocks his head,
still swiving on the lily pads,
throat filled again with minnows.

And I was feeling so damn clever

just for picking up on the zipping of a fly! Thanks for the biology sociology etymology.

A 16th Century English Lesson.

Realizing that some of the word images in this poem are intentionally archaic, I offer a little background:

Frog has long been a derogative term applied to obnoxious men, frog-eater being one of the first applications. First used in the mid1300?s, it wasn?t until the late eighteenth century that the English commonly applied it to the French for political reasons? and ?French? has its own special meaning. It?s unsettling how much a small, flaccid penis resembles one.

Sard, jape and swive all first appeared on the cusp of the 1500s when propriety eschewed the word ?fuck?. (Poor Geoff Chaucer!) Cove appeared shortly thereafter, in place of the dreaded C-word. So too did botanical references like lily pads, or lily lips, which are labia borne out of the rather quaint euphemism ?flowering place?.

The balance of the entendres are hopefully obvious.
