Eve Roper Poet Limerick

My Knights Embrace

excited and in a daze, just in case
                                     I have to make sure I don't  misplace
                                               my aspirin for  tonight
                                                 I'll be with my knight
                                         in shining armor in his embrace



suspend an aspirin between the knees and use that as contraception!" It was a "joke" in the 1960s.
