Spoonerism Pantoum
taking a family Thanksgiving walk
on the Johnson Funny Farm
holes everywhere in the tufted ground
“What are they? They’re everywhere!”
on the Johnson Funny Farm
pine straw sticking up like golf divots
“What are they? They’re everywhere!”
Briar confessed: “We have aardvarks”
pine straw sticking up like golf divots
like a foursome gone club-crazy
Briar confessed: “We have aardvarks”
he mixes up his words sometimes
like a foursome gone club-crazy
holes everywhere in the tufted ground
he confused aardvarks with armadillos
taking a family Thanksgiving walk
I love the Johnson Funny Farm, with its own double meaning, and I like the image of aardvarks on the farm so much, I think I'll be seeing it all day today.

One: I adore the pantoum form! It invites play, as you've magnificently illustrated here. Two: Your wit and wordcraft are as shining and sharp as ever! I think – no, I KNOW – I would love the Johnson Funny Farm and even the aardvarks – er, armadillos. (Here in NC we just got possums).
