I’ll have to get some bananas today.
I hear they’re loaded with potassium.
“We need some milk,” I thought I heard him say,
And the ads say women need calcium.
My daughter likes macaroni and cheese,
So I think I’ll buy her a box of it.
The dog needs shampoo to kill all his fleas,
And today I really need chocolate.
We’re out of detergent – I almost forgot
That we’ll need diapers and formula too.
My husband wants salsa – medium/hot.
Oh, and he needs polish for his scuffed shoe.
There’s still one more thing that I need to buy.
I’ll never remember – why bother to try?

Hey, your sonnet has been submitted to the Literary Magazine as Prof. Kilgore talked about in class... if you prefer not to have it published you can e-mail them at uscblitmag@gmail.com!
It's a pretty cruddy sonnet, so I'm not worried about it. I doubt it'll be published (unless you guys are truly that hard up for material).
