The election of my celibacy
Gives evidence of my delicacy.
Of my immeasurable worth, I am aware.
My motto is “fragile—handle with care.”
A lady possessing values, I am.
I prove too good for “wham, bam, thank you, ma’am.”
If you are to even be a prospect,
I demand that you show me some respect.
Before trying to seduce me with charm,
Recognize with morals, I stand armed.
If you want to be a fellow of mine,
You will do more than just “wine and dine.”
If in my presence you are to abide,
Inquire to know who I am inside.
You should familiarize yourself with me
To ensure that we are compatible—agree.
We ought have more in common than feelings,
If we are to pursue further dealings.
If you want to touch my outward beauty,
Prepare yourself to fulfill your duty.
You must make a lifelong commitment to me,
If, me in your bed, you will ever see.
A trip to the altar, we have to take
Before you can have a piece of my cake.
