On Beyond Edward: Vier ala Lear

     Up the Duff 

You who've read about Derry down Derry:
Read, instead, of Miss Carrie from Gary!
Carrie skipp'd Indiana 
and tripp'd to Savannah.
No fun run, but (yes!) necessary.

     Scary Stuff

Have you heard not of Derry down Derry...?
Plu-absurd, too's, his frere...and he's hairy:
Having cut himself shaving,
this nut now's stark-raving.
He's bleedin'! Please: heed 'n' be wary!

     Bit o' Fluff 

 You who've read of ol' Derry down Derry:
 Read, instead, of a fairy named Mary!
 Mary haunts our back garden 
 near vaunted East Arden.
(Our Mary is arrogant -- very.)

     Two's enough 

 Most who visit ol' Derry down Derry
 wouldn't miss it -- his chokecherry sherry.
 Quaff a tumbler or two:
 laughs and mumbling ensue.
(After three, even thee may prove chary.)

Christmas Day: A Mare Egg...
