...are we mad...? Sadly...

Call me Ishmael...
...I'm a Hell's Camel...

...Me...? I'm La Shellac... 

...A camel shell am I...

(Is this story about Ishmael the harpooner, Ishmael the motorcycle gang member, Ishmael the gentleman thief or Ishmael the hajjan...?)

An Anagrammed Alternate Gatsby

In my younger and more vulnerable years... 
...a gerbil ruined very early neums...

(In this variation on a classic jazz-age novel, Scott Fitzgerald's opening words are completed with some by Ulysses Poe. Together they begin relating the story of a former mysterious American millionaire turned novice choir monk who composes liturgical texts, setting them to primitive written forms of chant only to have both words and notations set on fire by a jealous Mongolian hamster bent on harassing the cloister.)

C. Dickens's "A Tale of Two Cities" Opening Line Followed by U. Poe's Alternative Anagrammatic Continuation

It was the best of times... 
...see: I'm soft, wet -- bat-shit!  

(Show me someone who thinks it was the best of times and I'll show you someone who isn't paying attention.)

J. Joyce's "Ulysses" Opening with U. Poe's Alternate Anagrammatic Continuation

Stately, plump Buck Mulligan...
...kills McUbu, tall 'n' gay Muppet. 

(The Irish Times called it the crime of the century.)

Hoary barbs for less? We've none.

The Trials: A Lament

I've tried 

to imagine myself 

a fine fellow. 
I've tried 

to suppose myself 

some sort of saint. 
I've tried 

to remold me 

in manieres most mellow. 

I've tried 

one pluperfect self-portrait 

to paint. 
I've tried 

to imagine I'm 

ev'ry bloke's bestie, 

a guy 

lacking guile 

and mendacity's taint. 
I've tried, 

since a kid, 

of all sin to be rid. 
I've tried -- 

heaven knows how I've tried. 

I just cain't.
