Rain after drought

You know how rain from a storm hits the ground after a drought, when the soil is hard and parched; almost shiny and polished? How the rain bounces off the surface and away into the runnels without soaking in and doing some good?

Sex after a period of abstinence is like that. It's over too quickly to satisfy, it doesn't refresh the emotions as much as less urgent, gentler, more frequent sex. It also leaves you almost as frustrated or dry as before.
