Perfectly charming book, bound in black and silver, an intimate and seductive gift for a lover, featuring erotic sonnets of love in the style of William Shakespeare. Here is the first sonnet:
Those lines that I have writ before do lie
Mute witnesses to my imagining
Nor shall I know until the day I die
Whether to others pleasure they may bring For sure they're born of one poor poet's lust,
And as obscenities may be abhorred;
But those who shrink self righteous in disgust
Know not the proper function of the bawd.
It's not a great tradition to rehearse
The fantasies of our carnality?
In the scatology of vulgar verse
We humans celebrate venality.
So think not that these squibs were best unread:
That which is oft imagined may be said.
