When the poet, Mr. Pennyline,
Is inspired by beauteous Aniline,
Products chemical and gas-tarry
Give the modern Muse new mastery.
Mauve may chime with love, and mauver
Form a decent rhyme to lover;
While (and if not, why not?) mauvest
Antiphonetic proves to lovest.
(Verse erotic always sports
Tricksily with longs and shorts.
