I want a sonnet and I want it now
by Paganini JonesI want a sonnet and I want it now!
So write me a sonnet, any-old-how!
I dont care about rhyme or iambic feet
I just want a poem to me from you
So write a new poem! Oh please, please do?
And dont go complaining about the muse;
Of how she wont come in her satin shoes;
Of how her trim form has changed to old meat.
Just write me some cliches about tender love
And how like it is to a white turtle dove!
How many times must I daily repeat
I dont care about rhyme or Iambic feet?
I just want to hear that its me you love true
So tell me you love me. You love me. You do!
