Poems From The Head

Oh, Hossa, Where Is Thy Oxterbind?

“Oh, Hossa, where is thy oxterbind?”

The giant howled and screamed

“I left it inside the northern wind”

A victory for Hossa, it seemed

 

But Onta, oh Onta, had died that day

Whilst angels whizzed and roize

“For that, oh Hossa, you surely will pay”

Boomed the giants melodious voice

 

A man of Hossa's unterskars

Had NOT adzeen the day

When lobachs died and polished their cars

THE GIANT...was well on his way...
