The words that indicate that the tone of the sonnet is satirical are black wires and reeks.
Explanation:
The given words are from William Shakespeare's Sonnet 130. William Shakespeare was an English poet, playwright, and actor, and is considered the key figure of the English literature. His works include 154 sonnets, along with a couple more that are a part of his plays.
In Sonnet 130, Shakespeare mocks the conventions of sonnets, which involved an idealistic description of beauty and love, by realistically portraying his mistress. The words that indicate a satirical tone are black wires and reeks. He compares the mistress's hair with black wires (If hairs be wires, black wires grow on her head), contradicting the stereotypical description of beautiful long silky hair. The verb reeks refers to the mistress's breath (And in some perfumes is there more delight / Than in the breath that from my mistress reeks) and implies that it doesn't have a pleasant smell, which is another contradiction.
