A Quick Review in Verse


SEASON THE THIRD

Reviewing this round
Of our favorite, The Crown,
Where to begin?
Well, the Queen’s lost her chin.
And Margaret gets shorter,
The more that they thwart her.
Surprisingly Anne has a man in her bed,
And not so surprising, Sir Winston is dead.
Mountbatten’s flirted with fascists and been told he ought not,
And Philip’s played by that sadist who raped the hot Scot.
Charles tries hard to be a true Prince of Wales
And win Mummy’s affection, at which he fails.
All in all I must say the third season’s been fun
Though not quite so urgent as things seemed in one.

In Praise of a Headcold

I hate a cold, and loath the fever,
and while I'd rather not have either,
I'm liking both now, I must own,
For making me a baritone.
