The Karma Sutra

Lost in translation, I think I need Ranganathan,
perhaps he could tell me what it's all about,
Sir Richard Burton did a good professional job,
as an app(etiser) although most are none the wiser.

Maybe an update would be an appropriate idea,
I've written 'Positions,' but not much has changed,
some of these things come to the point of absurdity,
the last time I tried no. 87, I got a crick in the neck.

We should do things differently next creation time,
shorten the possibilities, nothing quite so elaborate,
maybe a 'times-up,' wouldn't be such a bad idea,
instead of all of us doing everything by that book.

I hear some exclamations: 'Dream on, you wish,' etc.
speak for yourself or rather, excuse me while I lie down.
