Today it continued to rain
and I sat at my desk with Mark Twain.
I ate a few fresas
And nada cervezas
As I worked on my research in vain.
I said I would speak in Mex. City.
At the time it made me feel giddy.
I now say caramba!
There’s no time to rumba
If I’m going to make this talk pretty.
Twain has an incredible wit.
And Hemingway says Twain is IT.
But in español?
Well, Huck, let’s roll,
And show your place in U.S. lit.

Brilliant. ^_^
ReplyDeleteInstead of thinking yourself in a bind,
ReplyDeletethink of your brilliant, able-to-do mind!
Go venture ahead
With Mark Twain instead
And leave your worries behind.
