A Body In a Coat

Still grotesquely afloat Belly ready to bloat His last meal A Milked Oat And then hard rowed a boat But with a shot was downed And the next thing was drowned! His harsh look watchers note And at it his foes gloat And ample time devote The perplexed by A Quote He could not learn by rote … Nor read what scholars wrote. Rather in love with oat And enthused about coat … Now, helpfully The Drowned For Book-free underground.
