Not content with unleashing sexist, short-attention-span snippets upon a unsuspecting magazine market of illiterates, Maxim publisher Felix Dennis has turned to poetry. Apparently, Mr. Dennis has been at it since 2000. Fortunately, Return of the Reluctant has obtained an exclusive look at Mr. Dennis's poetic oeuvre. Here's a small sample from Mr. Dennis' "Throwing My Love Into the Barbeque Grill," which was rejected (as of last week) by seventeen publications (including Cocker Spaniel Quarterly):
Fifty words! Too much to read
Let's cut it in half so we can clear out
And get that hun to bob her mouth
Fast cars, big tits, what's wrong with that?
I'm with Delta Phi Alpha for life
Pour the wine and they'll believe
I'm hip! I'm rich! I'm a poet!
I made more cash than Guccione
And I paid all my writers to pen baloney
Where's the next sleek and sexy Croat?
What it takes is a steak and a coupla brews
Over the edge, with some red meat to stew
Get a few Swedish models and a few Polish dogs
Dress 'em down, keep your pet in your pants
Keep the look garish and carefree
You'll end standing up at the barbeque grill
What a thrill!
Better than the window sill!
And she'll be there reading your latest issue
This time, she's there. You won't need a tissue
