The second half of line one along with each of the
six subsequent half lines of the quatrain are anagrams of
the first half of line one -- i.e., of 'Raymond Queneau.'
Additionally, as proper quatrains should consist of a pair
of rhyming couplets, "Q For Q" follows that prescription
with what can be seen as faux eye rhymes -- 'drum' and
'(quo)rum' and '(Mon)day' and 'quay,' though 'quay' is
properly pronounced 'kee,' thus the faux eye rhyme
designation.
Raymond Queneau,
ye neon aqua drum.
Damn! You 'n' a queer
need a -- any! -- quorum.
O Ray! Manque (nude)
O Ray! Manque (nude)
ran queue Monday.

Mary, Queen o' Duna:
Mud...? Ne'er on a quay!
