From The Poet's Dictionary


Whimsy, Whimsy, Whimsical

I can't ever get this right, whether
it's with an "h" or whether without:

what the "h"! -- I think of Lord Peter
and Dorothy Sayers, with or without

the "L." -- and Sayers Bakery -- maybe
a cream bun fight, the battle to prove I'm

no cream puff, to show Cousin Angelo I have
the cajones: I'll arm wrestle his Donship

to the ground. And that's no whimsy.

Christopher T. George
