He Called On Aphrodite

He called on Aphrodite
To keep him company
At night.
But she,
Being otherwise engaged,
Paged

Who suggested Claire
(As Lizzie
Was busy
washing her hair).

But Claire
Being blind drunk,
Recommended a rascally old monk!
So, in despair
He contacted Joan,
Who told him where
To go, over the telephone!

Who said, “will you partake of my fruit?,

And if you go upstairs,

When A Young Man Named Guy
