My Sgt. Shultz
by Rev. Ryan "Rat" Travis
I think I have a small penis
I mean, sometimes, it's not there at all
not that I'm worried about it
I'm pretty happy
I really like my penis
it seems to do the job
I haven't had any complaints, that I know of
He's got an itchy trigger at first
but once you get him going
He's like Buckaroo Banzai.

Having a penis is kinda cool
He's like your pal
you can twirl him around
and wiggle him like crazy
He's a great toy
it's balls I can really do without
They're just annoying
always in the way
and forever the potential
for DANGER
Have you ever been KICKED
in the balls?
To those of you who have experienced it
it sends shivers down their spine just thinking about it.
Ladies, just try to imagine someone
punching your ovaries for comparison
and while it's not childbirth,
a well placed kick in the nads
is enough to make you see god
something a kick in your nether regions just can't come close to.

So I like my penis
but I hate my balls
but it's much more than that
I'd be lost without my penis
I think most guys would be.
Balls are just something to scratch
besides being the true business end of the whole thing
I wouldn't miss 'em if they were gone.

I've thought about how fun it would be to have a vagina
and what's a vagina without a clit
I'd think of my vagina as extra storage
a place to keep things warm
and I'd always refer to it as my pussy.

I would think hermaphrodites would have it pretty great
the best of both worlds
and when you think about it
they've got 4 ways to receive pleasure
or give it for that matter
you know,
winky, vag, clit, and butt
I figure if you're a hermaphrodite, you've got to be kinky.

I've also thought about placement in a hermaphrodite
if your penis is normally where it is
and your vag is just below it
Where is your bungh ole?
Where are your balls?
I think now would be a good time to be sans balls
cause the whole implication of having to lift
big sweaty balls to get to the holiest of holies is right out.

Right about now you must be saying to yourself
this guy's got a lot of time on his hands
but really it's much more than that
I've never really written a poem for my penis, I mean
about my penis
and for most guys their penis means a lot to them
How many guys do you know that name their penis?

Mine has had a couple of names
the longest running one was Gilligan, you know,
cause of the hat.
I had one girlfriend that her breasts were Ginger and Maryanne.....
but that's another story.

I look at my penis and I say sometimes
he looks like Darth Vader
but when I really look at him
standing at attention
he looks like Sgt. Shultz
you know
short and fat.
