Beguiling Babble

Listen to my nursery rhyme A tale so regaling, yet sublime Sated with jester, clown and mime Riddler along to sanction every, literary crime Mime to mimic my contorted form Jester to scuttle every, accepted norm Clown to mock all that seek to conform Riddler to meter and rhyme deform Muse that deadens every line Stanzas that have no structure or byline Verse with no purpose or design Syntax without luster or shine Scribe with pen so erudite Quipster all his words to blight Cantor to sing of convention and rite Charlatan to make his anthem trite Story without beginning or end Chorus that will constantly amend Regular patterns, meaning to rend To all readers I now condescend
