My mistress' eyes are nothing like the sun;
Coral is far more red, than her lips red:
If snow be white, why then her breasts are dun;
If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head.
I have seen roses damask'd, red and white,
But no such roses see I in her cheeks;
And in some perfumes is there more delight
Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks.
I love to hear her speak, yet well I know
That music hath a far more pleasing sound:
I grant I never saw a goddess go,—
My mistress, when she walks, treads on the ground:
And yet by heaven, I think my love as rare,
As any she belied with false compare.

Explanation:

Satirical means 'satire', so which part of the sonnet shows "the use of humor, irony, exaggeration, or ridicule to expose and criticize people's stupidity or vices..."?

"My mistress" is a serious term, as is "black wires", "demask'd", Ā and "false compare", but "reeks" doesn't have a very serious connotation.
