Riassunto

"Sex Objects" - I learned from a friend's porno mag that men can buy the better class of plastic doll, (posh ones are hard and unyielding, not the pneumatic sort that fly from windows when they're pricked), in slow installments, torso first. Well-qualified in wanking, Mark saves up his pennies till they grow to pounds and then invests in Ingrid, just the body, for his carnal press-ups - a bit too flesh-pink for human and she sports a ridgy seam where back meets front. Mark humanizes her - steals her a black lace bra that doesn't fit, (he's not that used to seeing naked tits), and puts a cover of a Cosmo girl up on the pillow where his doll's neck ends. Six months on, tired of screwing her pink trunk, he spends his pocket money on a head.A bald one comes by post, mouth a red 0. He buys his girl a man-made fiber wig, and, graduating to fellation, talks about her to his friends. He gets the arms for Christmas and soon gives his doll a voice, a steamy tape; he's good at it by now, he thinks, and she should tell him so. The tape's a great success at first, until he starts to get the timing wrong, and Ingrid, moaning says 'It's wonderful' - after he's gone. Mark's not a legs-man, so these limbs come last - a duty - something to hook round his back. He's shocked when they arrive - one black, one white. The firm's in liquidation and could just supply him with the halves of two whole pairs. (The black's from 'Sonia', another doll.) That limb cures his Pygmalionitis quite. He starts to look for human girls to fuck, but finds they usually need persuasion first, their fannies aren't so neatly set in front and, unlike Ingrid, they can criticize.

Sex Objects

I learned from a friend’s porno mag that men
can buy the better class of plastic doll,
(posh ones are hard and unyielding, not the
pneumatic sort that fly from windows when
they’re pricked), in slow instalments, torso first.

Well-qualified in wanking, Mark saves up
his pennies till they grow to pounds and then
invests in Ingrid, just the body, for
his carnal press-ups?―?a bit too flesh-pink
for human and she sports a ridgy seam
where back meets front. Mark humanises her?―
steals her a black lace bra that doesn’t fit,
(he’s not that used to seeing naked tits),
and puts a cover of a Cosmo girl
up on the pillow where his doll’s neck ends.

Six months on, tired of screwing her pink trunk,
he spends his pocket money on a head.
A bald one comes by post, mouth a red 0.
He buys his girl a man-made fibre wig,
and, graduating to fellation, talks
about her to his friends.

He gets the arms for Christmas and soon gives
his doll a voice, a steamy tape?; he’s good
at it by now, he thinks, and she should tell
him so. The tape’s a great success at first,
until he starts to get the timing wrong,
and Ingrid, moaning says ‘It’s wonderful’?―
after he’s gone.

Mark’s not a legs-man, so these limbs come last?―
a duty?―?something to hook round his back.
He’s shocked when they arrive?―?one black, one white.
The firm’s in liquidation and could just

supply him with the halves of two whole pairs.
(The black’s from ‘Sonia’, another doll.)

That limb cures his Pygmalionitis quite.
He starts to look for human girls to fuck,
but finds they usually need persuasion first,
their fannies aren’t so neatly set in front and,
unlike Ingrid, they can criticise.
