Greeks thought onomatopoeia
Sounded like a great idea
Causing pedagogues to yell it
Until it came time to spell it
light verse and much, much worse

Greeks thought onomatopoeia
Sounded like a great idea
Causing pedagogues to yell it

Still hoped he’d find a match
Then soon learned women don’t date guys
Who come with strings attached

To many an anemone
The fear is any Yemeni
Who ofttimes like an enemy
Sauteed and slightly lemony

The budding poet soon suspects
The pointlessness of: Solve for x
