Terse Verse (And Worse)

Authors

Mary J. Youngquist

Abstract

In the February 1970 Kickshaws, Dave Silverman introduced the concept of Spoonerhyme -- short doggerel poetry in the form ILL WIT. / WILL IT / DIE OUT? / I DOUBT. Construction of these verses is as habit forming as eating salted peanuts (but fortunately a good deal less fattening).
