I FELT SORRY
I felt sorry for the tetrapod vertebrate
when I was informed of the poor creatures fate
for it seems he's lost his powers of seduction
having contracted reptile dysfunction.

Well written. Your poem humorously addresses the concept of "reptile dysfunction," which serves as a metaphor for loss of vitality and desirability in life. It highlights the fragility of life and attraction through a whimsical take on the struggles of a fictional "tetrapod vertebrate.
Thank you sp much - I do appreciate your kind comments as I do with those of all the 'regulars' - it makes the posting so worthwhile. - I feel so guilty that I don't have time to post in depth reviews of others but i do my best.
I love this play on words on a day that promotes tom foolery. A fun read Michael and a fave By the way I wonder if this fossil has a hard on.

Feel sorry or suffer? πππππππ
Feel sorry. Suffering quietly was inbuilt in me till I decided at this late age to break the shackles and silence
