For Just-
for flir ty skir ty
posie pies and lolly-
gagging bummings
i tip the cur

less too e cummings
for tur vy tops

i clicks the brimmy
of my cup
to brim-
less too e cummings
in thankfultude
for all he dood
un-doing with
his dummings
i tootootoot
in rootless hoots
for just-
less too e cummings
(with my apologies to this great poet,
but I am not too fond of a few of the
things he inspired in lesser poets!)
