100,000,000,000,000 poems

When one with t'other straightaway agrees
Through snobbish growing round her hemline zone
Upon his old oak chest he cuts his cheese
Normal one aims to be and share the throne
It's one of many horrid happenings
Filching the lolly country thrift helped save
An icicle of frozen marrow pings
In purest cradels tha's how they behave
It's no good rich men crying Heaven Bless
A bird-brain banquet melts bold Mistress Mog
Watching manure and compost coalesce
Bard I adore your endless monologue
Ventriloquists be blowed you strike me dumb
In cognac brandy is Bacardi rum?


Raymond Queneau
