I like Emily Dickinson
Wore a white tux
Her dress was black and grey
Hotel room was small

Florida is ignorance
And powerful thunderstorms
Lightning over the Atlantic
I've been to Royal Albert Hall

She joined Alpha Chi Omega
I read Pythagoras
Her hair was very long
******* beautiful and small

Not to be born is best
That's what Sophocles said
He never met Wendy Towson
But I once did y'all
