Oh no it isn't!

from the ABC set The Long and the Short of It...

No, Man IS an island,
full of Manx, that is.
Mancs manqué?
Its capital is Doug-less
no loss there,
but watch out
for the cats!
You’d better
learn another
way to swing those.

This made me laugh. I think it's the vision of those swinging tail-less cats.

Great poem, very cleverly turning on a sixpence. Poetry isn't my thing but this is mercurial. Excellent thinking...
