It would help if you quote the post that you are answering - firing off rockets in all directions and expecting the original poster to recognize that he is being addressed is also a bit confusing!

Jabbery-wockery, dickery-dockery,
Tensical-densical, this is nonsensical.


(Apart from the last phrase.)

Whereas, as I've said elsewhere, poems like "The Walrus and the Carpenter" or "The Owl and the Pussycat" are perfectly coherent, and make perfect sense - on their own terms.
