The dolphin is a fancy fish,
but it has no use or porpoise.
Every one I've ever known
just lived from fin to orifice.
A slightly different version than I posted in this Unaboard thread.

I love that. And it aptly ends with an orifice. Perfect. I wonder how many poets have at least one orifice in their body of work? I have one. Trouble is that I giggle when I say it - it's such a cool word - so I spoil the reading of the poem every time.

Yeah, orifice is a great word. Besides porpoise, it can be forced to almost rhyme with words like horseface, Morpheus, endorses and corpses.
Of course, I posted the nonsense verse too quickly. After a little more revision it would read like this:
The dolphin is a fancy fish,
but sadly devoid of porpoise;
Every one I've ever seine
just lived from fin to orifice.

A fishy dolphin is still a mammal
with breasts and a connection to La Luna
If only Florida let them vote
No fear of Bush and Dolphin unsafe Tuna

John, one day you, or we, should hold a Real-time Nonsenseathon. What do you think?
I sure hope your weather isn't as bad as they make it out to be on the news. Happy shoveling!
