Classic Poem

What do you know about people who go about
Raiding a village like tramps?
Storming the shops for improbable objects,
Buying superflous stamps:
Shouting for anything, mud or mixed pickles,
Stroking a nigerous cat:
What do you know of the way of the Nicholls?
What do you know about that?

What do you know about people who blow about
Lyme, and along the parade,
Where in the solemn sarcophagous shelter
In its funeral shade

Poor old G. K. (who is perfectly chronic)
Talks through his Horrible Hat —
Under the gloom of the columns Ionic
What do you know about that?

What do you know about what is the Show about
Destined to knock you all flat —
What do you know of . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .
What do you know about that?
