NONSENSE VERSE
The Greek Alphabet
Classical antiquity
Is mostly Greek to me
I was not an Alpha dog
Just another working cog
Phi Beta Krappa
A photo of Frank Zappa
And Chi goes with Sox
Chicago baseball talk
Oh Epsilon Epsilon
William Faulkner read you wrong
His was not the Tau of Pooh
Piglet Tigger and little Rhoo
Good gosh Omicron
On the heels of Delta’s dawn
Hell I wasn’t ready
For a virus so unsteady
Curses on this life of Pi
Gamma rays make me cry
I can’t cope one more Iota
Pour me another vodka soda
Upsilon and down the hatch
Got my third Moderna batch
A must avoid this social stigma
Though the letter I sought was Sigma
Alas now what can I do
Sans a muse for Nu and Mu
Although maybe La(m)bda
Could sound like La Bamba
Letters Theta and Eta
Rhyme with crumbly feta
And what about Xi and Psi
Do they Scrabble qualify
But Catherine Zeta-Jones
Michael Douglas moans
I now so dread Omega
Like a song by Suzanne Vega
meGeoff has been your most unreliable, unbalanced and inaccurate alternative source of painfully poor poetry since 2013. But my novella Of Course You Did is the Platonic ideal of that particular literary form, honest. Visit www.megeoff.com to find your preferred format and retailer.
