Vice

Thou didst make the Shakespearean Sonnet
Be a song about homoerotic love,
Of a man and his eleven year old, dead son.
How much more foul is this queer science
Which cannot interpret a man’s verse?
Of a heartbroken father, singing over his son’s hearse?
No, instead, you make it the foul love of he and a duke;
Yet, read the damn thing, and its true meaning
In light of this,
Will make thou puke.

For how dost thou change the fatherly advice
Of a sire to wed a wife?
If not a father's fatherly love to a son,
Thou disgraceful fiends would make it vice?
