A twisted sonnet for Sally
Sally's Surprise

Sally explained the facts of life to me.
She twirled her hair, and this is what she said:
"Dally awhile behind the schoolyard shed.
Prepare yourself for something of a shock."

With shaky legs, I waited there for her
expecting something good to come of this.
Fifth period was when she said we'd meet.
"Sex education of the hands-on kind."

Bright smirk upon her face, she turned up late
clutching a cage that held her hamster Bob.
Right from the start, I saw I'd been misled.
Touching my bits was never on her mind.

Bob wasn't male, she'd guessed its gender wrong.
Fobbing a pup on me was what she planned.

PROMPT:

Write an English sonnet. THE TWIST - Instead of the last word of the lines rhyming, I want the rhyme at the start of each line.
