Dirty Poetry From Mind of Ivan L. Moody: 1

Product Information

The dead are mourning not their lost lives but the loss of this conviction that life is a priceless gift of radiance and beauty and consummation. They are mourning lost youth’s lost illusions, and with this realization the poem broadens until it encompasses all of us in our aging bodies, including one melancholic elderly poet. (Housman was in his sixties when this little verse was published.) On the other hand, Housman did have the compensation (not given to the rest of us) of knowing he’d composed one of the most heartbreaking tiny poems in the language. With its vivid imagery and candid language, the poem doesn’t shy away from the primal facet of human relationships, embodying the modernist ethos in literature. The poet uses a conversational tone, turning an intimate moment into a relatable narrative, while also exploring themes of desire, passion, and the sensory experience of love.

The companion piece to the carpe diem poem might well be the aubade, a form in which the poet begs his lover to stay in bed and mourns the rising of the sun because it means that they must part. John Donne’s poem, " The Sun Rising," is one of the earliest examples: Berryman won the 1965 Pulitzer Prize for Poetry for his nebulous, semi-autobiographical collection of poems, 77 Dream Songs, which follows an unfortunate series of events in the life of a main character, who bears a resemblance to Berryman, named Henry. The ever-evolving poems are known for their unusual phrases and changes in perspective. Also, they’re sometimes dirty in an abstract way. Take, for example, Dream Song 4: By the end, one should feel revulsion on a level equal to the speaker’s. This makes the twist at the end all the more satisfying and funny as the room is revealed to have been the speaker’s all along. Something that’s sure to make you laugh. Here are the first lines: offended. For those who are easily confused, there are online dictionaries galore which will provide suitable (although sometimes self-referential) definitions of cottaging, frottaging, dogging, tea bagging and many more sexual deviancies. More Rude and Dirty Poems You come to fetch me from my work to-night When supper’s on the table, and we’ll see If I can leave off burying the white Soft petals fallen from the apple tree (Soft petals, yes, but not so barren quite, Mingled with these, smooth bean and wrinkled pea;) And go along with you ere you lose sight, Of what you came for and become like me, Slave to a springtime passion for the earth. How Love burns through the Putting in the Seed On through the watching for that early birth When, just as the soil tarnishes with weed, The sturdy seedling with arched body comes Shouldering its way and shedding the earth crumbs.” — “ Putting in the Seed” by Robert FrostOne of the lesser-known poems on this list, ‘Eletelephony’is an upbeat funny poem that describes an elephant through an outlandish series of events.

Although Brooks is not generally associated with funny poetry, this piece certainly earns its place on this list.Roald Dahl’s ‘ Cinderella’is a humorous retelling of the story that includes parts of the story found only in the original Brothers’ Grimm version. You may know that we sing the lyrics to his poem Auld Lang Syne every New Year’s Eve, and that his poem, Comin’ Thro’ the Rye, is the children’s song misinterpreted by Holden Caulfield in JD Salinger’s The Catcher in the Rye—but you probably didn’t know it has a more explicit version. At first I cannot even have a sheet on me, anything at all is painful, a plate of
iron laid down on my nerves, I lie there in the
air as if flying rapidly without moving, and
slowly I cool off—hot,
warm, cool, cold, icy, till the
skin all over my body is ice
except at those points our bodies touch like
blooms of fire.” — “ After Making Love In Winter” by Sharon Olds

To speak of men’s room graffiti is to raise a nettlesome inquiry: where on earth did they go? These days, unlike the days of my youth, you very seldom find a men’s room stall darkly scribbled with lubricious verses. I suspect the cause is—somehow—the internet. But this does raise the distressing question of whether our computers have become our toilets.) In this lighthearted poem, Stevenson’s youthful speaker describes his shadow and the amusing ways it jumps around and grows. This poem benefits greatly from being read out loud due to the use of alliteration. The sounds of nonsense words are half the fun. Here are a few lines:A mere twenty-one syllables, and two lives illuminated! It seems the ailing dog, in all its debility, continues to own its responsibilities; it still aims to safeguard the household. And the poet, aging himself, marvels at the speed of time’s transformations: Surely just yesterday it was that this beloved creature’s energy was boundless. After turning six, they are happy to remain that age forever. The child speaker feels as if they are as clever and happy as they could ever be and see no reason to age any further. Here are the first few lines: She was wild, unpredictable, beautiful, and dangerous. Impossible to resist. A summer storm in a bikini.” ― “ Bitter Sweet Love” by Michael Faudet Donne is considered to be the most prominent member of the Metaphysical poets, a group of seventeenth century British lyricists who used complex metaphors called “conceits” in sonnets and poems about topics like love or religion. Though he became an Anglican priest in 1615 and was later appointed Dean of St. Paul’s Cathedral in London, he spent much of his early years as an educated womanizer. Maybe his early experiences helped him when writing these eloquently cheeky lines from To His Mistress Going to Bed: It was naked until it put on the “head / That once belonged to me”. The speaker sees himself doing things that he would normally never do and asks that those involved do not take offense.

The title reminds me of dirty pretty poetry which I first came across on allpoetry.com where I used to post almost daily but now spurt out a few poems per year or two. Written in 1948, this poem was enough to make mothers blush and fathers grumble in disapproval. W.H. Auden takes his time to vividly describe a sexual encounter between two young adults on a hot summer’s day. This poem contains numerous funny explanations from a child speaker as to why their face is so dirty. The concluding injunction may be parenthetical, but it is doubly emphatic, both italicized and exclamation pointed. Say what you mean! the author is enjoining herself. Life’s losses are catastrophic, and any whitewashing of the tragedy is a cowardly evasion. Some dirty poems use imagery and subtle analogies to get the point across. That is not the case with this contemporary poem by Adrienne Rich, where there is no room for misinterpretation.

Wordplay is perhaps best understood as one of the tools that make possible poetry’s extraordinary concision. Partnered with meter and rhyme, it works beautifully to compress a wealth of feeling into a compact stanza. One of the reasons why the genre of the extremely brief short story in prose, the short short, interests me so little is that, to my mind, poetry does this sort of thing so much better. Here’s Frost again: Poets have long been using their poems to aid their passionate pursuits. In the first century BC, Catullus wrote his lyrics to Lesbia, pleading with her to ignore the gossip of old men and instead share thousands of kisses, so many that they lose count: Williams likens the women’s dress to autumn leaves falling from a tree, leaving her naked and exposed. Once the body has emerged, the speaker trails off with an ellipsis, leaving the events to follow up to the reader’s imagination.
