some

About “SOME”

A little background music, please....


To, me and many others, the concept of “some” has informed our sexual lives. From childhood to adulthood, the question of “some”, and the quantities related to getting pussy (“a little”, “a piece”, etc.) has fascinated me: women needed to get “some” to behave right, boys and men were constantly in search of “some”, and everyone except me seemed to know about “some”.

When I heard boys asking girls for “just a little piece, baby”, I always wondered if the boys had to beg so much because, like pie, even if you served it in small slices, eventually you had “none”. And I wondered if, like pie, you could just make another when the one you had was all gone!

Well, a great deal of time has passed since I was a child, and my personal acquaintance, nay, love affair, with “some” has broadened my horizons. I know now that when asked for a little, I question the man's honor: 'cause just a little doesn't usually work for me-so if you're going to take “some”, then take it all, it's what it's made for and because I can make more....

So, herewith, my ode to “some”- the quintessential duet and pas de deux between man and woman. (click on the picture to see a larger view)
