Oliver Twist


from the ABC set Poems

A hungry young Nolly called Twist,
Begged more, so he'll never be missed,
Met Fagin and Dodger,
Became Brownlow's lodger,
While Nancy just ceased to exist.

Ahhhhh.... Succinct, pithy and a giant of literature to boot. Much reviled by people unfit to lick his boots. Dickens is quite good too. :-)
