An Ode to A Sex Toy & Lament for Limp D**ks: The Bawdy Poems of John Wilmot

We've learned about John Wilmot's incredibly libertine life, but it's time to strap in and strap-on for some of his full, filthy, 17th century poems in this episode-length Poetry Corner! First Wilmot spurts beautiful rhymes a bit early in his premature ejaculation poem, "The Imperfect Enjoyment." Then in "The Disabled Debauchee" an old man hopes the next generation will be even more lecherous and dirty than he was. And finally, a warning to men to step up their game in the bedroom, lest they be outperformed by "Signior Dildo"! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
