Bent Over Backward.
It’s silver and shiny, all glamour and slick. A polished apendage, like a pogo stick. It’s slippery and long, reflecting the light. You can’t take your eyes off this length of delight. Center of attention, it pulls in the crowds. Tall and symmetrical, it reaches the clouds. Everyone watches the star of the show. Inanimate object all ready to go. Then out comes Briana, a pretty young girl. A contortionists dream and ready to twirl. A wonderful dancer, she climbs on the pole. Bent over backward, muscular control. An honourable job, a labour she loves. The Indian rope trick for private men’s clubs. But Briana did fall, and tragedy struck. She got the pole sweaty and ran out of luck. She landed in a heap beneath the wet pole. And never worked again, lost in a black hole. Now she has this advice, should you enquire? When bent over backward try not to perspire! .
