707 Sally-Jo taught erotic correction.
708 She told her student to get an erection.
709 "Put your dick in my mouth.
710 Move it north, move it south --
711 Now, you're getting a sense of direction!"
713 Her instructions were very explicit,
714 and more than a little illicit:
715 "Please fill up my cunny
716 with fresh clover honey,
717 and butter my buns like a biscuit."
719 "Then wrap me up nice in a blanket,
720 and I'll sit on your staff while you crank it.
721 I'll put on some feathers,
722 and laces and leathers,
723 and wiggle my ass while you spank it."
725 "Now that your fingers are stinky,
726 tie me up in some chains that are clinky.
727 Bring in goats and a sheik,
728 give my titties a tweak
729 --and _now_, we can start getting kinky!"
731 "Forget what the chain and the whip meant.
732 Just get the straps and the slings and a shipment
733 of high-grade Vaseline,
734 and a strong trampoline,
735 and all of the other equipment!"
737 "Now, when we get all the bedsprings a-drummin',
738 that's when I'll start in a-hummin',
739 then quickly, my dear,
741 so I'll hear the sound of it comin'!"
743 "I don't know how much this is costing,"
744 said her student, still covered with frosting.
745 "But I can say with affinity
746 that I've lost my virginity.
747 Quite frankly, my dear, you're _exhausting_!"
