100,000,000,000,000 poems
He bent right down to pick up his valise
That horders of crooks felt they'd more right to own
He bent right down and well what did he seize
The thumb- and finger-prints of Al Capone
The roundabout eats profits made on swings
That metred rhyme alone can souls enslave
A daring baron pockets precious Mings
The nicest kids for strickiest toffees crave
The wolf devours both sheep and shepherdess
Or grinning like a pale-faced golliwog
From cool Parnassus down to wild Loch Ness
But I can understand you
Brogher Gog
With marble souvenirs then fill a slum
The best of all things to an end must come
