Thread Name: BS: Poetic Statuary
Subject: RE: BS: Poetic Statuary
But this Statue, eternally defies the winds of time,
And I hope will long be seen in the public mall at Dundee;
It has been manufactured to last past the insurance date
Indeed, may our children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children's children be able to admire it, still standing in state

And so how can we, mere chroniclers of sculpted verse
Condemn this ode to poetry's dark and doomed black hearse
For where a sculpture of the Greatest Bard stands defiant before time
So should we, the humble catters yet continue with our rhyme
