I agree that it can be too wordy at times; since then I've tried simplifying my style, which hasn't been an easy task; rambling comes naturally to me, as I'm sure you've guessed by nowI'll do an edit in a mo with your revised lines, and give the last stanza a makeover when I have more time.
I don't remember hearing "tweak your nipples" in Bob the Builder, though... Do you mean that the line was cheesy?
Thanks again for the feedback and kind words
of course thats jmo.
the good thing about putting poems into drawers is that when we take them out we can often spot what needs doing fairly easily. it's why i don't think a poem should ever be discarded.
