With Apologies to William Carlos Williams
I have taken
your virginity
on the eve of
your senior prom
and which
you were probably saving
for someone
better-looking
Forgive me
you were delicious
so sweet
and so hot
:)
Dedicated to Hannah for her bravery in speaking her mind this morning, when no one else in the classroom would acknowledge the obvious sexual allegory of "This Is Just to Say."

The brilliance of this is only amplified because less than 12 hours ago, I did a literary critique of "This Is Just to Say". Very enjoyed.
I still love this poem muchly. It will probably be one of the few poems that I bother to memorize, meaning that it earns a place in my head beside all the dirty limericks.
There once was a sailor named Tex
Who avoided premarital sex
By thinking of Jesus
And awful diseases
And spending his nights below decks.
