The poets Cousin,
Whose sister works for the French Ambassador's Maid,
Bought shares from the old sailors shipping rig,
The ship sank with merchandise from Peru,
The sailor fled to Moscow,
The French ambassador held a party,
To mark his wives 56th birthday
The maid drunk all the remaining wine,
imported directly from France.
The cousin got a baby boy.
40 cents per page was the asking price
For the poet to print his treasured essays
at the government printers library
No receipts or guarantees was to be issued.
