Last time the prompt was to write a poem on your poetic philosophy or technique or process and try to incorporate other subjects. Today’s prompt is to write a poem on the theory of science, the application of sex and the process/techniques of either. Be didactic and philosophic. Pretend you are Alexander Pope explaining the mechanics of friction, proper installation of a dildo, the first law of thermodynamics or the concept of reproducibility. To get a feel for the style and tone you may wish to use, you can read a little of Pope’s “Essay on Criticism”; remember he was only 23 and set guidelines for criticism that remains relevant today. Put on your expert hat. Get started writing! Enlighten us.
