P-funny!
And for all you brave eaters, something by Ogden Nash:
A gourmet once challenged me to eat
A tiny bit of rattlesnake meat
Remarking, "Don't look horror stricken,
You'll find it tastes a lot like chicken."
It did.
Now chicken I cannot eat
Because it tastes like rattlesnake meat.
The lizard poem sounds like something we'd say while jumping rope, double dutch.
ReplyDeleteCiao, three Annas.
