Orange (Mission: Preposterous)
Can there be anything that’s more ing-
enious than to rhyme with orange?
Or have you heard aught more absurd
than rhyming an unmated word?
Just this: that even realists
can turn into idealists
when once they think they have attached
a mate to words that seemed unmatched.
So if you’d make your rhymes more orangey,
just sip a wee dram of Glenmorangie;
you might learn words to score in Scrabble on,
or, at the least, be led to Babylon (*),
but certainly, however foreign,
just know that all rhymes lead to Orange.
