The great poets of yesteryear
Often secretly held penises dear
Frilly shirts, flowery prose
A penchant for the bent-over pose.
.
For example, Verlaine
A name you may know
Put the 'rim'
In Arthur Rimbaud
.
Lord Byron was closeted
I'd have guessed
You just have to look
At how he dressed.
.
Yet when you read their verse
About cocks they rarely converse
Their odes are on urns and clouds and trees
Not what they like to do down on their knees
.
As for me, I'll write doggerel
'Till my muse is spent
But I go for the girls
One hundred percent.
