A is for A: an Illuminated Alphabet in Verse: Letters S & W

        S is for S








     If Fuehrer's faves ('bout whom Herr raves)
     I'd deign to designate, 
     I'd 'S' redact -- 'SS,' in fact --
     for "bruv's we love to hate."


     W is for W:










     Herbert Walker play'd the Hawk. Herr
     Prescott play'd the Banker.
     Jeb play'd Pol, while W,* y'all
     recall, play'd quite the ________.**

            *Pronounced, as does the man himself, in
              two syllables: 'Dubb'-yuh.'
            **'Canker,' 'shanker,' '(blank)er' -- even 
             "stanker" are all correct entries.
