This poem is about sex.
(yeah, that got your attention)
This poem is about sex.
This poem is about love.
This poem is about living in your sexuality
instead of being afraid of it.
This poem is about saying “fuck you”
to everyone who told you
it’s wrong.
It’s dirty.
It’s shameful.
This poem is about the sin so natural
it takes you to heaven on earth.
This poem is about turning the key,
finding your voice,
making your own choice.
This poem is about independence,
decision,
instead of buying into all their misery.
Honestly.
“Abstinence class”
150 pages of health text book telling you
“Don’t”
“Wait”
6 years of administration telling you
“Don’t”
“Wait”
6 years of scaring you
out of what’s instinctual.
6 years of alarmist tactics,
and no information
on –
anything, really.
No information,
no education,
just propaganda,
setting a social taboo
so they can control how we live our lives.
“Avoid the pain-
just abstain”
“How does birth control work?”
one of the brave ones asks from the back of the room.
“Birth control,” says Mary Farmer, “Is illegal if you’re
under 18”
“Yeah, but…how does it work?”
persistence, brilliant.
We’re doing our best to make this
absolute and total hell for her.
She gives us a condescending
glare-of-death.
We already know the answers
to our questions,
we looked it up ourselves.
If they won’t teach us,
we’ll teach ourselves.
“I won’t be shamed ‘cause I believe that love is free,
it fuels the heart and sex is not my enemy”*

It encourages me so much that (thanks to my imagination-*cough*) I now have a nosebleed from Hell.
But it's worth it. ;D
It is beautiful, full of attitude and just the right one to push your point across and really get into the heart and mind of the reader.
its informative, its a stand up for all the things you said.
It's an F* U* to the "standard set of normality"
and it is absolutely
Beautiful
