Never Again To a Mystery
Our deaf and dumb pilot,
Whose path-finding guts we haven’t got,
Took us to the sinister spot,
Where would be found a fearsome pot
And the littlest cot,
With baby spirits like a big dot,
Still seeming through and through a zygote,
Some on the cot happily choosing to squat,
A handful with their eyes chasing a far-off yacht
And the rest riotously dead, ready to rot!
And all these did my belly churn
And our hearts burn
And a Roger resurrect his trust in incense and urn
I, swearing never again to a mystery turn.
