yarb commented on the word nympho
Yet one feels almost justified still to acknowledge
the deeper reflection of, albeit hackneyed,
the Human Condition in Nature (reduced
as she is from the nympho once over-extolled
for ad-nauseum cyclic fecundity, to
today's stripped-bare and thorny old sod half-heartedly
whorily pouting a couple of blackening nipples).
