Whatever you do don't buy Germaine Greer a birthday

present. One of her friends gave her a book of Rimbaud's

poetry, which contained a poem in praise of anuses, for her

seventieth birthday, and got a page long bollocking in the

Guardian. Germaine 'never knowingly germane' Greer gave her

readers a long, harsh, lube-free buttfucking while

fulminating about the 'deeply banal' fascination with anal

sex. (Was 'deeply banal' a misprint for 'deeply anal'?)

However, not

all intellectuals think sodomy is a bummer. Craig Raine

managed a whole sonnet on the subject. (An 'arsewhole'

sonnet? I do apologize.) “It is the dilating iris, tucked

away, a tightening throb when fucked." Well, absolutely!

Feminist pioneer Greer's recent triumphs include a book of

photographs and text perving on teenage boys. There would

have been a bit of a fuss if Norman Mailer or Martin Amis

had written a book saying, repeatedly, 'Teenage girls, eh?!

Phwoar! Wouldn't you? I would!” And it's always been

unclear to me why she is qualified to offer advice on

anything never mind everything under the sun. She hated

both of her parents, then had numerous sexual partners in

the sexual revolution, none of whom are remembered fondly.

She was married for three weeks flat, (well done!), before

trying and failing to have children. She may be good at

keeping geese, on her farm, where she lives alone, but

otherwise, why are we supposed to be interested in a

solitary headcase who seldom has a good word to say for

anything or anybody?

(courtesy Forum magazine, excuse stating the bleeding obvious in conclusion)

Getting back to sex, not before time,

anal intercourse, like anything else worth doing, requires

a little study and practice. Follow the anal sex code:

lube, fingertip, more lube, more finger, GENTLY DOES IT.

More lube. Loads of lube. And don't stint on the lube.

Condoms should be extra thick and designed for this

purpose. It's worth taking a little effort for a profoundly

intense ecstatic experience. Aleister Crowley actually

based his religion, Thelema, around anal intercourse. But

you don't have to dabble in black magic to enjoy sodomy.

It's also quite popular in the Church of England. Quite a

few vicars swear by it. Cue Monty Python's man-about-to-be-

stoned-for-blasphemy. “I merely said that was good enough

for Jehovah.” That's enough blasphemy. Poetry may be

spiritually uplifting but if you want practical advice get

these excellent, nay indispensable, books online, (as they

won't be in most book stores):The Ultimate Guide to Anal

Sex for Men by Bill Brent The Ultimate Guide to Anal Sex

for Women by Tristan Taormino (deservedly in its 2nd

edition). And treat receiving partners with a great deal of

tender, loving care, before, during and afterwards. Leave

the sado-sodomy to the seventies and Last Tango in Paris.

Which was probably when some inconsiderate brute put Greer

off...

Thanks Ms B! It's the very Verlaine and Rimbaud poem that so incensed feminism's own dear queen. Can't cut and paste as out and about. You win a croissant and , er, a plate of snails in garlic? Or a Bon Bon?

Alas, no. Although there is the great hairy beaver shot from the seventies. Will that slake your thirst for hot Greertastic porno?

It's anthologised in Bloodaxe's "Pleased to See Me" - sadly leant and not returned. Don Paterson also has a great poem in there called buggery but sadly only an extract is available on the internet

It's not much longer than that:

'At around about four months or so

-the time is getting shorter-

I look down as the face below

goes sliding underwater

and though I know its over with

and she is miles from me

I stay a while to mine the earth

for what was lost at sea

as if the faces of the drowned

might turn up in the harrow

hold me while I hold you down

and plough the lonely furrow'.

'Pervert'? She can't even spell it!

Thanks, this is great. Raine's rude sonnet is in Don Patterson's Hundred Sonnets, for Faber, with a little commentary.

A commentary of sorts from pompous public school drip A.N.Wilson; 'His sonnet "Arsehole" of 1983 ("I fed that famished mouth my ambergris") made A. N. Wilson feel "sorry for Mrs. Raine"'
