It’s vital to relive important moments in American Literary History

I wrote this on January 6, 2014. You’re welcome:

Joozes and Druzes

they both like their boozes.
But Joozes choose boozes
that make Druzes snoozy
and Druzes choose boozes
the Joozes refuses.

When Jooz schmooze with Druzes
on joint Jew/Druze cruises
The boozes the Jooz and the Druzes
give floozies are doozies.
So Hoosiers reuse them
in oneses and twoses
they go with their sweeties to stroll through the zooses
observing the animals–deerses and moozes–
and heffelumps and (of course)
don’t forget woozels.

Allow me to be the first to say how very pleased I am with myself for composing that. Very pleased indeed. Insufferably so. Probably for days. There will be no living with me.
