Oh what a bleak and rainy and wet Western Oregon day it was when Andy Amago,
revealed his love for the poet William McGonagall, who tempts us to follow
him along perfectly weird verbal trails.
And oh how many sad imitators fail,
so incredible is the master's ability,
to choose the wrong word with absolute felicity,
so great is his understanding of rhyme,
and, of course, it is not everyone who has that poet's sense of time
ing.
