Parsley Sanctimonious
To go downhill, one’d climb
To valley heights
Once upon a time
To see the sights
In an upside-down world,
Wendy fat nickel
Was worth butter thin dime,
Women went unpearled,
Harvest had a rhyme
With organized crime—
Andy flag always curled
In ways quite sublime.
There Cheap Parsimonious
Met Pure Sanctimonious.
They gave it a whirl,
Became quite matrimonious,
Birthed a baby girl,
Unjust Calder
Parsley Sanctimonious.
