Scanning CBN this season
It seems that folk have lost all reason;
Too much fondness for the cup let’s
Readers speak their mind in couplets –
The letters page just got much worse:
The goddam letters all in verse!
So cork the bottle, take a vow
To mend our ways and study how
To say goodbye to poet’s pose
And learn anew to write in prose.
(With apologies to all CBN’s budding poets.)
