To Tu Fu from Shantung -- Li Po

       
(Poem #683) To Tu Fu from Shantung
 You ask how I spend my time--
 I nestle against a treetrunk
 and listen to autumn winds
 in the pines all night and day.

 Shantung wine can't get me drunk.
 The local poets bore me.
 My thoughts remain with you,
 like the Wen River, endlessly flowing.
-- Li Po
tr. Hamil.

A wonderfully poignant poem about the pain of separation from one's beloved;
it's amazing how the poet manages to capture the essence of the emotion in
words as simple as they are heartbreaking. Further commentary would be
superfluous, so...

[Minstrels Links]

"About Tu Fu" is a gem of a poem about, well, Tu Fu (who'd have thunk it?):
poem #504

The above link has biographies of both Li Po and his 8th century
contemporary (and fellow poet) Tu Fu. It's also the starting point for one
of the nicer journeys I've taken, a poetic exploration of the Silk Road.

"The River Merchant's Wife: A Letter" is Ezra Pound's (rather liberal)
translation of another Li Po masterpiece; it, too, deals with themes of love
and distance and devotion: poem #70

Cách làm tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ không đau:
1.Tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ với nước ấm
Đây là cách tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ tức thời, trước khi quan hệ bạn nên đi tắm với nước ấm ấm để tăng lưu thông máu trong dương vật. Làm kích thước dương vật tăng lên lẫn chiều dài và chu vi, khi quan hệ cậu nhỏ cũng dễ dàng cương cứng hơn.
http://xuattinhsomramau.com/suc-khoe/gan-bi-vao-duong-vat-tot-nhat-o-tphcm--dac-nong-pleiku-gia-lai-dac-lac.html
2.Bài tập tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ
- Thực hiện bài tập này khi “cậu nhỏ” ở trạng thái không cương cứng.
- Cách thực hiện: Dùng ngón tay cái và ngón trỏ tạo thành vòng tròn tại đầu dương vật. Giữ chặt vừa phải và kéo về phía trước cho đến khi cậu nhỏ đạt giới hạn cho phép. Giữ cậu nhỏ ở trạng thái giãn khoảng 15 giây trước khi thả lỏng. Phương pháp này tập luyện hàng ngày mỗi ngày khoảng 10 - 15 lần.
http://phongkhamnamkhoaaua.net/details/cach-gan-bi-vao-cua-quy-an-toan-tham-my-tai-da-khoa-au-a.html
3.Tập Kegels để tăng chiều dài và kích cỡ cậu nhỏ
Phương pháp này là làm tăng sức mạnh của cơ PC (phần cơ nằm ở khoảng giữa tinh hoàn và hậu môn). Đơn giản bạn chỉ cần dùng lực bằng cách co thắt cơ PC (giống như khi nhịn tiểu). Mỗi lần co thắt, giữ nguyên trạng thái khoảng vài giây trước khi thả lỏng. Lặp lại vài lần và tăng thời gian mỗi lần co thắt. Kiên trì thực hiện đều đặn để đạt kết quả như mong muốn
http://bacsitructuyen.edu.vn/suc-khoe/phong-kham-da-khoa-au-a-uy-tin-chat-luong.html
4.Thực phẩm để tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ
- Protein có tác dụng làm tăng sức mạnh tất cả các mô trong cơ thể. Do đó, chiều dài hay kích cỡ cũng sẽ tăng lên và sự cương cứng cũng dài lâu hơn. Những thực phẩm giàu protein là thịt nạc, gia cầm, sữa. Bên cạnh đó, bạn cần hạn chế những đồ uống chứa cồn và caffeine như bia, rượu, cà phê. Những đồ uống này có thể làm giảm huyết áp, khiến bạn có thể bị rối loạn chức năng cậu nhỏ.
http://catmimat.edu.vn/thuc-hu-phong-kham-da-khoa-au-lua-dao-benh-nhan-den-kham-benh/
- Ăn Chocolate đen một ngày cũng có thể làm tăng 10% lưu lượng máu (theo một nghiên cứu của Đại học California). Do đó, đây là thực phẩm rất tốt cho những nam giới đang quan tâm đến việc mở rộng kích cỡ cậu nhỏ lớn hơn. đây cũng là cách làm dương vật to lên.
- Các loại cá như cá hồi và cá ngừ , phô mai, bột yến mạch tiểu, mầm lúa mì có đầy đủ arginine - một axit amin quan trọng giúp phát hành các hormone và làm giãn nở các mạch máu. Điều này dẫn đến lưu lượng máu đến dương vật nhiều hơn, sự cương cứng ấn tượng hơn.
http://xetnghiemsuimaoga.net/details/quy-trinh-ky-thuat-gan-bi-vao-duong-vat-nhu-the-nao.html
- Các loại quả trái cây, đặc biệt là quả việt quất và mâm xôi có nhiều chất chống oxy hóa mạnh mẽ vừa tốt cho sức khỏe nói chung của bạn, vừa là thực phẩm tuyệt vời cải thiện kích cỡ dương vật.
5.Dùng thuốc thảo dược để tăng chiều dài cậu nhỏ
- Để có một dương vật đạt chuẩn có thể kéo dài thời gian quan hệ như ý thì người đàn ông cần một lượng đầy đủ các testosterone, oxit nitric và lưu lượng máu thích hợp. Các thành phần trong thuốc thảo dược có thể giúp nam giới cải thiện vấn đề này.
