Possible repost: "Ought"
I've been back through the archives here, and can't find this one. It's possible it only got sent to the Yahoo! group, so I'm putting it here too so that I can link to it. Don't know how long ago I wrote it.
Ought
You don't want to know how I feel about you: It ought to be kept to myself.
You've a wife back at home, and you ought to stay true, and I ought to stay on the shelf.
I lie here at night, and I thrill to your snores, and I counterpoint them with my curses;
I ought to resist what the army deplores. I think I'll just stick to the nurses.
