Rep. Eric Swalwell is making light of erotic poetry he wrote when he was a 19-year-old college student.
Swalwell, a California gubernatorial candidate, contributed the poem “Hungover From Burgundy” to literary magazine The Lyricist as part of a creative writing class at North Carolina’s Campbell University, according to the Daily Mail, which acquired the poem from Joel Gilbert, a right-wing film director and activist who opposes Swalwell’s bid.
The two-stanza poem describes, among other things, “kissing till veins imploded and exploded”—with “blood rolled down our chins.”
