another watershed moment of science

There is a new medical device
About to hit the market at a cut price
But before you buy it you’d better think twice

It can spot a player a hundred miles away
As for white liars it is worth every penny you pay
But, I have to say, it is not perfect, it can’t tell the night from the day

It is a an implant that finds you love
No, not the kind you get from the “Lord”, above
It is more like a version of “when push comes to shove”

Oh! it will surely influence the congregation
Get you to the alter and avoid the reallocation
But you will find it truly delays the gratification

Well, again we are too smart for own good
Loving your lover was never meant to be really understood
We always had to put up with love the best way that we could

But here we are at another watershed moment of science
A little wisp of a thing that they call an arousal appliance
But, if you don’t use it right there is a penalty for non-compliance

So if you are looking for a little fun off the track
You better keep some live ammo locked and loaded in your sack
Because if you try to play, this little implant will give a shot, then give you a smack!!!

a bit of a companion piece to "clone zone" ( the stubborn species) something about technology - in five hundred words or less)

and no folk's science has not developed "A little wisp of a thing that they call an arousal appliance".
Yet....
