Parallel Universes (Unpub)

     To grasp Ravel, 

she drills like hell. 

She "l'Oye, Ma... 

     Mere" is learning.

     Typography...? 

She knows what's key:

Each letter...

     pair she's kerning.

     ‘Tis true that Cher's 

ditch’d Sonny. Where's 

it writ whom…
     Cher’s now spurning…?

     Friend Kier reveres 

Three Musketeers:
for Dumas,… 
     pere, he's yearning.

     Pea Green Anjou's

Don't stare: each…
     pear is turning!

     How much seems right 

to mind my mite…?
Francs our au…
     pair is earning.

     'Mongst actors, which 

named Charles is rich...?
A billion-…
     -aire is Durning.

     Der Fuhrer calls 

von Choltitz, bawls: 

"Mein Herr, is…
     Paris burning…?"
