this poem contains material unsuitable for children
i think this d h lawrence stuff is over-rated said the snail with its dying breath

an electrical storm
you
me
pale bodies against the medieval green of the grass
a million snails our dumb audience
as we played two of them were crushed underfoot
we were saddened momentarily
(disgusted)
my cock softened
until you took it in your mouth
and began masturbating
more snails died in our frenzy
when it was over
and my cock had shrivelled
you said
it looks like a snail
small and wet in the rain

in the aftermath of the storm
we watched from the window
as thrushes disposed of the corpses
