ODE TO A VIBRATOR, Keats Updated for Seniors 

Although a Grecian Urn*

can be a thing of  beauty 

it's not something to which to turn

and   ask to do its duty.

For when  a  lady's over eighty

but  still feeling  matey,

she often  gets  tired of waiting

and   would   rather be dating

So while she'd love a caress

as well as some flattery

at least she doesn't have to impress

a handy  gadget's battery

 under her dress,

And no  matter how she may look,

she still  doesn't have to cook 

or else be clever, 

you see,

or  be concerned by someone's ED,

for it, there never is a never 

and  this  toy, IS a joy

 forever.

BOOK I / A thing of beauty is a joy for ever: / Its loveliness increases; it will never / Pass into nothingness; but still will keep.
