Rough drafts - their scribbled nest o’erflows
The Blue-Box prest against my toes.
And spoofs get hungry – ask their sire -
For watts that flow down printer wire.
Both home and office still it seems
Consume their daily MegaReams.
Into the stock of greenhouse gas.
Intimidates the Northern Pine).
God’s Earth will fry ere Hell may freeze;

KILMER'S "TREES" UPDATED (inspired by Ogden Nash)
I fear that I shall never view
A spoof that gobbles CO2.

| Ogden Nash, poet and humorist |
A spoof that gobbles CO2.
Rough drafts - their scribbled nest o’erflows
The Blue-Box prest against my toes.
And spoofs get hungry – ask their sire -
For watts that flow down printer wire.
Both home and office still it seems
Consume their daily MegaReams.
Once de-composed, spoofs’ souls will pass
Into the stock of greenhouse gas.
(The ozone loss from page and line
Intimidates the Northern Pine).
God’s Earth will fry ere Hell may freeze;
Save forests, don’t print parodies.
