Does Cambridge Have a Comma Too?
Oh, Oxford Comma, let all hail to thee
You sorter-out of tidy sequencings
Who suffer not confusion in categories
And marshal your strong words in battle lines
Oh, Cambridge, poor Cambridge, you have not
A comma of your own; your sequencings
Were lost among the fens in Hereward’s days -
You might want to go a-fishing for them
Oh, sure, Cambridge,
You have your arts and poetry and drama
But only Oxford boasts her very own comma
A poem is itself.
