The Gipsy's Warning
Do not trust him gentle lady,
Though his voice be low and sweet,
Heed not him who kneels before you,
Gently pleading at thy feet,
Now thy life is in its morning,
Cloud not this thy happy lot,
Listen to this gipsy's warning,
Gentle lady, trust him not.
Do not turn so coldly from me,
I would only guard thy youth
From his stern and withering power,
I would only tell thee the truth,
I would shield thee from all danger,
Save thee from the tempter's snare,
Lady, shun that dark-eyed stranger,
I have warned thee, now beware.
Lady, once there lived a maiden,
Pure and bright, and, like thee, fair,
But he wooed, and wooed, and won her,
Filled her gentle heart with care;
Then he heeded not her weeping,
Nor cared he her life to save,
Soon she perished, now she's sleeping
In the cold and silent grave.
Keep thy gold, I do not wish it!
Lady, I have prayed for this,
For the hour when I might foil him,
Rob him of expected bliss;
Gentle lady, do not wonder
At my words so cold and wild,
Lady, in that green grave, yonder
Lies the gipsy's only child.

The Church says the earth is flat, but I know it is round for I have seen the shadow of the moon, and I have more faith in a shadow than in the Church.

Cramming for an English Final
Etch three X's on a Grecian Urn
add equal parts of Milton, Shakespeare,
Whitman and Pound.
Spice it with Cervantes and shake
till the analgesics wear off.
Drink it in and swallow the world.
The essay wasn't a total "succuss".
Hamlet was singing the Song of Myself,
While attacking windmills and eating the petals,
off a wet, black bough--in Hell.
But other than that it went off rather well.

The Purple Cow
I never saw a Purple Cow,
I never hope to see one;
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one.
--Gelett Burgess
*at a later date*
Ah, yes, I wrote the "Purple Cow"--
I'm sorry, now, I wrote it!
But I can tell you, anyhow,
I'll kill you if you quote it.
