The man who renamed his dick

There was once an old man who renamed his dick
For his wife thought it no better than a candle wick.
Call it 'The Sceptre', was his dictum
His threat: or I'll stick it in your rectum.
The wife said: you need several births to learn the trick.

Polanski's Lolita moment

Did Nabakov prove himself to be a pervert
Through the voice of Humbert Humbert?
Was Polanski ruthless and mean
When he had sex with a pre-teen?
If lust's a religion is man an easy convert?

The battle of Husn-e-Tharoor

Husn-e-Shashi Tharoor fights a no-austerity battle
With 140-character packets of dense virtual prattle
In this silly-season of drought
Some five-star food for thought:
Can political cowboys afford to lose their cattle?
