Subject: RE: BS: Bad poetry about London...
And now we've heard from Little Hawk, And old McGonagall too; It's plain that neither one of them Has quite enough to do! Mc Gonagall foisted awful verse On his mahter and his payter, And Little Hawk foists it on us all, A good century later!!
Fie on them both, and send them hence! Why should we silent suffer? For Little Hawk is a wicked sort And Mc Gonagall's a duffer! Our minds are burdened quite enough Without such persecution As these two blaggards offer up As Poetry Pollution.
Why Little Hawk, pray tell us why? What festers in your head? To track down awful English poems And put them in a thread? Such cruelty to all your friends Should not soon be forgiven; And you should banned be from here, Until you are quite shriven!
