professing lust a dozen different ways  
I stumble on a sonnet, a bit quaint  
but surely suitable -- my lavish praise  
knows not of moderation or restraint  
you might perhaps assume I'd write an ode  
that's only good for worship from afar  
my hunger's of a wholly different mode  
I long to be inside your boudoir  
and not just boudoir, let me be blunt  
a sonnet, after all, is just a means  
and in my fevered mind I hear you grunt  
as need takes over, mixing of the genes  
a sonnet of a kind you don't expect  
and promise: in the morning, still respect
