Limericks and Games

wears shoes for ads and for glory

Ellie poses for ads and for glory
In pumps and flats and diademmed zorii;
Dore engraves
her arches as naves
and her ankle's scratched thin by Ed Gorey

Ellie's been drawn by Gustave Dore
and scratched in line by Edward Gorey
Dore engraves
her arches as naves
and she's scratched very thin by Ed Gorey

yes ellie poses and therein's a story
her fashion's a plate, her

---

Ellie poses, here's the story:
in pumps, in flats in diademmed zorii
      pumps & flats & jewelled zorii

Dore engraves
her arches as naves

and her ankle's scratched thin by Ed Gorey

Ellie is as Ellie does;
Ellie wears such funny shoes.
      Does she do? In-
      Deed she does
Ellie chooses funny shoes.

Bashful is as bashful does;
Ellie chooses funny shoes.
      Some goes spit &
      Some goes spat.
Ellie chooses funny.

to Glenna? Martha? T Barger

Ellie is as Ellie does;
Ellie wears such funny shoes.
      Does she do? In-
      Deed she does.
Ellie chooses funny shoes.

Bashful is as bashful does;
Ellie chooses funny shoes.
      Some goes spit &
      Some goes spat.
Ellie still chooses funny.

Ellie's more whig than tory;
Her feet tread paths to glory.
      Whether of 'gator skin,
      Pater or mater skin,
Her gaiters are fashioned by Gorey.

A Scotsman

A Scotsman found girls in Bagdad
Wore not much more than a tad.
It wasn't his musket,
But the heft of his tusk -- it
Lifted the pleats of his plaid.

A Scotsman well-nigh unclad
Revealed himself mad in Bagdad.
      Feeling not at all guilty,
      He hoisted his kiltie
To prove his snake scotched and not plaid.

A Scotsman while piping for girls
Blew up on his bag such skirls
      That the trae bonny breeze,
      Lifting kilt above knees,
Exposed all his pubical curls.
