There once was a fellow from Schnectady Who was arrested and hung for his perfidy: He said "I'll be gentle", Was instead detrimental -- though that's not hard when you're fucking a chickadee.

Perfidy, great word. I'm not really liking this too much but I'm going to give you an 8 just for that.

I've an eight for my perfidy, how grand
Though the rest of the poetry's judged bland
perhaps it'd less bore you
the Schnectadian to explore you --
can you more than the chickadee withstand?

What a poet will do to stick to a form!
With words play what tricks to the mold to conform!
But it jusn't isn't fair - no!
To harm a poor little helpless baby sparrow,
One man's tale as a pome to perform.
