Duke of York Uncorked

Prince Andrew in the press is tried, but he denied both far and wide, as Duke of York (soon Earl?), a train of thought upon the side, a rain of sweat upon a girl. Please, cork that Duke before I swirl! Submitted 12/4/2019 Five Word Challenge Poetry Contest by Beth Evans

Thanks, Caren. Just realized an earl is lesser than a duke, so I had to revise the poem. Hope it still works!
