He bent right down to pick up his valise
Through snobbish growing round her hemline zone
Forms shadowy with indecision wheeze
And empty cages show life's bird has flown
How it suprised us pale grey underlings
Signalling gauchos very rarely shave
A daring baron pockets precious Mings
The nicest kids for strickiest toffees crave
Platonic Greece was not so talentless
Or grinning like a pale-faced golliwog
Socrates watched his hemlock effervesce
With breaking voice across the Alps they slog
Where no one bothered how one warmed one's bum
And lessors' dates have all too short a sum
