Well, Quincy, Mcintyre’s effort is a fine example in the genre of ludicrously forced rhyme. We did have a whole thread on cheese poems early this year, at
http://www.ablemuse.com/erato/ubbhtm...ML/001598.html
where McIntryre’s fine example was cited. It’s enough to make you want to burn the implements of your craft and take up a new life as a trainer of performing elephants.
What do you want us to do with it, exactly, beyond admire in wonderment? Well, if that’s the idea, I’m with you there. And...
When a Quince follows a Quincy,
who shall deny the omen?
If the Quince doesn’t convince, he
fails with the Oklahoman.
What a name that is,
Quincy!
A perfect name, but for one letter.
Quincy sounds good, but Quince still better.
