When poets attack
This is one of the cleverest things I've seen in a while.
The back story is that the assistant head of English at Park Hall needed the red hand truck (that's a "porter's trolley", for those who don't get the American dialect), and asked for its return:
We're looking for an errant red hand truck. Anybody borrowed it or seen it? Thanks. --Mike
The word "errant" sparked a flood of responses spoofing famous poems.
I can't resist, and I apologise in advance to the memory of Ogden Nash.
Lost hand truck
Is bad luck
But mimic
Is comic.
