fuck a duck  (  a  b r i e f  e s s a y  t h a t ‘ s  a  p o e m  i n s t e a d  )

…

knell's the spell of thunder-truck

spun's the thumb & sunder sucks

pop's the pip of boar's the gore

bell's the swing & string's the pluck


snare's the mare of stumble-stuck

still's the quill & stable mucks

sing's the whale of shale's the shore

swift's the swoop & gloop's the gluck


burr's the bird of bumble-snuck

hen's the pen & crumble clucks

lick's the tick of brick's the door

pearl's the twirl & swirl's the shuck


sag's the rut of stagger-struck

rag's the ink & badgers buck

ink's the blink of nought's the screw

spew the shrew & fuck a duck
