A Short Pome
The man sat on the burning deck, eating bread and honey...
The crew were bored, and said to man, tell us something funny...
The flames arose, the crew did worry, so scurried away in search of money...
Yes it's short, and perhaps unfunny, but tis writ by a simple dummy...
We want some more, you tiresome bore...
But alas said man had rowed to shore...
Reciting pomes they could hear no more...
The ship went down, the crew were lost...
They searched for money at their cost...
Said man was Saved - he wouldn't be bossed...
