Sonnet Twist: A parody of Sir Philip Sidney's Astrophel and Stella, Sonnet LII
Astrophel's desire is for lust not love
While he contests that Stella is his
Her eyes, her lips, her hips, say lust, do this
Since lust does show her off, and firmly prove
Astrophel says it's a title he approves
That Stella (0 gorgeous body!) she is
That sexy soul, held by her is great bliss
It's all about her touch, and all her moves
And therefore, her body and her nice face
Be lust's possession, in Stella he will
And desire claims its entire true place
Well, lust, since you have won such a thrill
Let Astrophel's lusty eyes have Stella
And they'll have a baby named Bella
