I Play an Instrument

I play an instrument
 That pipes like a flute when percussed,
  And hums like an oboe when strummed,
  And sings like strings when tounged.

I play an instrument
 That I can play with my fingers,
  And my hands,
  And my very own bow.

I play an instrument
 That lubricates at the sound of a clapper,
  And chirps at the sight of a piccolo,
  And swells at the touch of bongo drums.

I play an instrument
 That sounds dulcet,
  And guttural,
  And bombastic.

I play an instrument
 That I can make vibrate like a timpani,
  And whir like a bagpipe,
  And wail like a trumpet.

I play an instrument
 That never needs to be tuned,
  And sounds lovely when wet,
  And can even play itself.

I play an instrument
 That has the curves of a cello,
  And the shine of a saxophone,
  And the grace of a harp.

  5. Thank you, R! I'll admit to feeling pretty clever coming up with that verse. :)

    Thank you, Blue, and welcome! I noticed that you have a fairly new blog as well and I look forward to reading it. It's great to see other erotic poets out there.

  6. My favorite part too R.
    Beautiful job!

    And to think I saw the title and thought it was going to be something about a "skin flute" I hear that's popular with the men. haha.

  7. Thank you, Jae! The skin flute is certainly an important part of the orchestra, it's just not an instrument I happen to play (alas, I'm not that flexible). It does make a lovely sound though!
