words to avoid in erotic poetry

slurp - i.e especially when used in the context of 'juices'

slurp has to be one of the unsexiest words ever.
 
Fata posted this over on teh GB, so for those who don't visit there or who missed it, i found this beautiful:

She arches her body like a cat on a stretch. She nuzzles her cunt into my face like a filly at the gate. She smells of the sea. She smells of rockpools when I was a child. She keeps a starfish in there. I crouch down to taste the salt, to run my fingers around the rim. She opens and shuts like a sea anemone. She's refilled each day with fresh tides of longing.

oh come on, y'all know there are words that make you wince when reading a piece of erotic poetry (or prose, for that matter). :) sure, there're always exceptions to the rule, but there's nothing kills the erotic buzz faster than the words you'll see here!

truncheon is generally bad too, although some possibilities exist...
 
I LOVE nectar! The word and the juice. :D

Syn :kiss:

it's not the word, per se, so much as its current popularity amongst writers of 'erotica' that's the problem. it's used more often than air hand-dryers in a rest room and so has earned itself a wince-factor for lots of readers. probably only readers who're writers as well, mind.... ;) in the grand scheme of things, the numbers of readers who don't write and aren't too fussed with originality will always outweigh the rest of us.

Fable

Her pointed little tongue
cut into me

like a chainsaw into a sequoia
and even my old growth fell,

trembling, to the soft floor
of the Forest of Need.

The question is,
do you think she heard the sound?

When a word is overused , it massively bores Frequent Readers & is called " cliched" , " stereotyped" & even " deja vu " !? & yes it creates painful wincing 'mongst 'em : BTW great to see 1201 baaack !!!

oh gawd

Chainsaw Love
for butters for the foot draggin accusation

Your nipples are slurpalicious
Like wantin' eyes
they followed me
since I walked into the place

Now can I get an order of fries
to go with the perineum shake

Later, I'll wear your face

top that Rob Zombie
