Tennysonian Parodies
1.
Like the Wag who jumps at evening,
All along the sanded floor;
2.
To watch the typsy cripples on the beach,
with topsy turvy signs of screamy play;
3.
Tom-Morry Pathos – all things bare –
With such a turkey! such a hen!
And scrambling forms of distant men.
O! ain’t you glad you were not there!
4.
Delirious Bulldogs – echoing, calls
My daughter – green as summer grass –
The long supine Plebeian ass,
The nasty crockery boring falls;
5.
Spoon meat at Bill Porter’s in the Hall
with green pomegranates, and no end of Bass.
