Jezebel would enjoy your rots,
Adorning such gibberish slew.
Briggands, dullards, galumphing mots,
Boondoggles and all the like too
Are somewhat stupefied in clots
When given such hullabaloo.
Or is this just some dream like fit,
Could its existence be untrue?
Kierkegaard would surely admit -
Yes, we're dumber having read you.
Adorning such gibberish slew.
Briggands, dullards, galumphing mots,
Boondoggles and all the like too
Are somewhat stupefied in clots
When given such hullabaloo.
Or is this just some dream like fit,
Could its existence be untrue?
Kierkegaard would surely admit -
Yes, we're dumber having read you.

Post a CommentTHanks for the comment, J.L., and you have a good weekend too! I have to admit this one confused me, as I thought you were making fun of the poem, which I memorized in high school:) (Twas brilling and the slithy toves did gire and gimble in the wabe. No idea if that's spelled right.) Anyway, I looked for a poet by this name to no avail. Oh, well. Good poem either way!
:) googled and read it again, as I had read the comments. Very nicely explained. good job buddy
Glad you explained it, must read about him. Thanks for that!
This poem is about a poet who called himself Jabbawocky, a misspelling of Lewis Carol's Jabberwocky.
Now I'll have to Google 'em (some of the words)! Interesting poem.
Excellent piece about a classic. Fine job.
