This is awesome.

I thought so too! He also had a poem about how the petals of the vagina unfold "like Christopher Columbus taking off his shoes." I'm not sure what that means, but I liked the image nonetheless. haha

I kinda pictured those shoes pilgrims always have in drawings, with the flappy tongue. Which doesn't seem good for whoever's vagina he's talking about.

Anyway, awesome.

DISCOVERY by Richard Brautigan

The petals of the vagine unfold
like Christopher Columbus
taking off his shoes.

Is there anything more beautiful
than the bow of a ship
touching a new world?
