Sometimes I can feel my neck crack back,
repulse cut forward.
This shit isn’t for you,
much as you’d like it.
I could have been unsullied,
you’d still call me whore.
Everyone had their turn with your words.
It makes you the harlot,
and I the dick to shove it in.

Hi,
The one problem I have is in the last line, how can you be the thing that you are going to shove in? Linguistically it just doesn't make sense, even though I can infer your intent, it is for me at least disruptive to the poem. On the other hand I really enjoyed the second stanza, a very nice play on words. Very sarcaustic (Yeah, it's a made up word satiric+caustic).

The goal is not to obfuscate that which is clear, but make clear that which isn't.

I'm so bright my mother called me Son!  Just ask Leanne, or some other unnamed mod (Billy) and they will give you many stars.

I think he gets one for each time he manages to work his sig into a critique.

It makes you the harlot,

Hi, News.
Dale has no idea about which you are talking, in Dale's humble opinion

I quite like your suggestion, but I still dunno about the comma.

it reminds me of game of thrones. unsullied is an utterlly amazing word.
is the reader the whore and the poetry/poet the penis
i have no idea why but i love the thing. (not sure if that's allowed but i think it is in miscellaneous. )
