Hmm...OK, I've got something.
The New Theme Is: Food.
By far, my favourite thing. In some way, somehow, your poems must all be about food. Go for it.
I suppose the deadline is...by Next Thursday.
Have fun

I chose this theme specially for you. Your food poems are shocking.

I should have added the stipulation Food, but no sex. But then no one would know what to write about!

Is that no sex in the poem or while it's being written?   |

What?! I always have sex whilst writing poetry. It feels unatural at first, especially when I'm trying to drink cranberry juice at the same time!

OMG LOL you need to stop  That's just disturbing! 
But just kidding...you can have all the sex you want...in or out of the poem. Hell, or with it (but not with your computer...)
...
I'll stop.
