Prepare to swoon. Erotic Poems makes the perfect sexy gift for a significant other or yourself. Many years ago the famously prolific E. E. Cummings sat in his study writing and thinking about sex. His private brooding gave way to poems and drawings of sexual and romantic love that delight and provoke. Poems and drawings pulled from the original manuscripts by the distinguished editor George James Firmage.
Simultaneous orgasms don’t happen often, or maybe not often enough, and therefore sex becomes a match of wills. There is a power to pleasuring and a relinquishing of power to being pleasured that e.e. Cummings erotic poems taps into beautifully, and this power struggle is the spine of these poems. —Reviewed By Will Grofic.
