Oh please I beg you. Don't get me wrong, my dear reader. A lot or some of you might thought that a very erotic blog has been written, and thus you clicked my post. I am deeply sorry that I disappointed you. Read on...

I am not promoting or adhering or attracting any individual who would like to talk dirty on the context of sex with anyone here in my humble abode. I consider these things as private and personal. But I was intrigued, lately, by this word due to a poetry gig I had attended with. Romancing Venus Mag:net, Katipunan will have a theme about FETISHES. And this prompted me to think or imagine the things I will be hearing from the poets of today. I will likely hear poems that would make ears bleed due to a ten dollar word or archaic phrases just to hide their fetishes. Combining expression and sophisticated styles, creating a strong and luscious lines. I am, in a way, excited to hear fetish poems that in through words that rhymes sensually, creating a beautiful core that is so addicting to the mind. Blinded by the fact that these poems are made for appreciation and not for the crude minded and rude.

I mean, that's the power and divinity of poetries; It makes a "dirty" word (moralists says) a blissful surrender in one's heart, mind and soul.
