Wild Flowers of Speech (2)
"His Whertubeuts Are Unknown" ré ’°VE looked within, I’ve looked without, I CANNOT find my whereabout, Of these I always keep a pair, One in use and one as spare, O hear my moan, O hear my shout, Where DID I leave my whereabout? O hear my shout, O hear my moan, My whereabout is still unknown. And what am I indeed without My precious little whereabout? A wraith, a shade, a husk, a shell; So let the crier grab his bell And through the wondering city tell How liberally I will pay Any person who can say Whereabouts and whereaway My whereabout has gone astray.
