Roger, I'm well aware that the slightest suggestion of real life won't get by the Washington Post censors, but I was enjoying myself too much to worry about that. Indeed, I acknowledged at the outset that what I'd come up with was (mainly) smut. But frankly, given the stakes involved, I'm just as happy to appear in the 'Conversational' section as in the 'Puritanical'.
Moreover,
Though words in my hands are like putty,
These limericks drive me quite nutty -
It’s exceedingly hard
For the properest bard
To invent one that doesn’t turn smutty.
