Analysis of Regretfully



I was told that if I shaved IT,it would make IT look much bigger,
and when strolling on the nudist beach,I'd cut a finer figure.
So ahead I went,carefully,and removed every single hair,
crying like a baby,when applying aftershave down there.
But the very next day I couldn't dress,my bits were itching badly,
and there wasn't a single minute go by,when I wasn't scratching madly.
The skin all red and blistered,how regretful I now felt,
as in a bath of soothing milk,tearfully I now knelt.
So if you're advised to shave it,to scalp your pubic hedge,
Don't,please leave hairy,your meat and two veg!!!!!
