    THRIFTED
    by MMP

    George, a beady eyed, butthead Canuck
    Found his creative juices were stuck
    Having found nothing new
    Something borrowed would do
    So George made a decision to pluck
    Slightly used poetry
    Just like fruit from a tree
    And it wouldn't even cost him a buck.

    Now old George was a dunce through and through
    So he thought e.e. cummings would do,
    He was dead and you betcha
    That readers forgetcha
    And besides, how's a dead man to sue?
    But as soon as "his" poem was done
    George Dance dashed of another "new" one
    He didn't look very far
    Took one from PJR
    Then a third from Leonard Cohen, too.

    But his creative efforts were lost
    For used poetry comes at a cost,
    To his undying grief
    George was branded a thief
    And his collected verses were tossed.

    Masterful poetry, Michael. We know that Pink Floyd was also nicked by
    George Dance, and the proof is in the AAPC archives. What's a Canuck
    gonna do when he has neither talent nor imagination? Steal!

    How many times has he stolen from fellow Canuckistanis like Joni, Neil,
    Leonard and Gordon?

    I'd forgotten about that one. George Dance has been caught plagiarizing
    more times than his Donkey has lied about being clean and sober.

    Anyone know of a rhyme for "Floyd"?

    George stole another poem straight from Pink Floyd
    When it was pointed out, George got annoyed
    To feel better again
    George dressed up like a man
    Called Jordy and got himself boy-toyed.

    It's his life's work. What do you do when you have no talent or
    imagination? And you are Canadian?

    Anyone know of a rhyme for "Floyd"?
    You can't use "employed" for either Dockery or George Sulzbach. George
    Dance was always underemployed, but being able to count to four sides of
    a box was important to a Mensa Man.

    George stole another poem straight from Pink Floyd
    When it was pointed out, George got annoyed
    To feel better again
    George dressed up like a man
    Called Jordy and got himself boy-toyed.


    George Dance doesn’t care whom he steals
    From since he takes the poems and deals
    Some crapola filled blog
    That no one will slog
    Through, since his brain has long since congealed.

    George Dance thinks that he has a real feel
    For poesy, though his verses reveal
    That heedless of the law
    He adheres to the saw
    Of "Those who can, do; those who can't, steal."

    How can you trust a George Dance?
    When he steals others’ poems at first chance?
    His wife was naïve
    To what George could conceive
    And he’s sealed her up tight in a box manse.

    --

    Patty stole her hat from Batty
    Penny stole from Pat --
    George denied the theft, claimed that he
    Changed the color of the hat.

    Penny likes to spam her pages
    Georgie likes to blog
    Public domain poems from Mooseland's sages
    While calling others "hogs."

    Georgie wrote of Penny's hat
    He wrote of Patty's, too,
    But the hat belonged to Peter's bat
    Now Batty's going to sue.
