Snark!

POETS DRIVING OUT

In the midst of the word he was trying to say, In the midst of his laughter and glee, He had softly and suddenly vanished away— For the Snark was a Boojum, you see.     On 12 August. ‘Gandalf the Green’ announced. The results of. An offensive operation.   That had been underway. Since […]
Swan

POETS TWINNABLE

“For while the tired waves, vainly breaking, Seem here no painful inch to gain, Far back, through creeks and inlets making, Comes silent, flooding in, the main.   And not by eastern windows only, When daylight comes, comes in the light: In front the sun climbs slow, how slowly! But westward, look, the land is […]
Snark!

A POET COUNTING

“’Tis the voice of the Jubjub!” he suddenly cried. (This man, that they used to call “Dunce.”) “As the Bellman would tell you,” he added with pride, “I have uttered that sentiment once.   “’Tis the note of the Jubjub! Keep count, I entreat; You will find I have told it you twice. Tis the […]
Snark!

A POET RESTRICTED

They sought it with thimbles, they sought it with care; They pursued it with forks and hope; They threatened its life with a railway-share; They charmed it with smiles and soap.     One local resident.

Snark!

POETS EATING

The Bellman himself they all praised to the skies— Such a carriage, such ease and such grace! Such solemnity, too! One could see he was wise, The moment one looked in his face!   He had bought a large map representing the sea, Without the least vestige of land: And the crew were much pleased […]
Prag's Day!

POETS NETWORKING

‘Tickets, please!’ said the Guard, putting his head in at the window. In a moment everybody was holding out a ticket:   they were about the same size as the people, and quite seemed to fill the carriage.     ‘Mordor’ is increasingly. Targeting ‘elves’ rail network. – from tracks and power stations. To locomotives […]
Praggggggggg!

POETS RAILING

All this time the Guard was looking at her, first through a telescope, then through a microscope, and then through an opera-glass.   At last he said, ‘You’re travelling the wrong way,’ and shut up the window and went away.     At least 12 people. Have been killed. And 20 injured. Including two children. […]
Garry will be back!

POETS VICTIMIZED

Alice never could quite make out, in thinking it over afterwards, how it was that they began: all she remembers is,   that they were running hand in hand, and the Queen went so fast that it was all she could do to keep up with her:   and still the Queen kept crying ‘Faster! […]
Garry is back!

POETS BLENDING

“Well, there’s the Horse-fly,” Alice began, counting off the names on her fingers.   “All right,” said the Gnat: “half way up that bush, you’ll see a Rocking-horse-fly, if you look.   It’s made entirely of wood, and gets about by swinging itself from branch to branch.”   “What does it live on?” Alice asked, […]
What???

POETS CONNECTING

‘So young a child,’ said the gentleman sitting opposite to her (he was dressed in white paper),   ‘ought to know which way she’s going, even if she doesn’t know her own name!’   A Goat, that was sitting next to the gentleman in white, shut his eyes and said in a loud voice,   […]
