Plucky Polly Cassidy had brains and vivacity
Her politics professor praised her wit and perspicacity
She failed
And things would never be the same.

  She cultivated a taste for tattoos and booze and good shoes
And was made a load of offers none of which she could refuse
She was vain
With a touch of the insane.

  Attempting to appeal to her decency and good sense
Polly’s father posted letters to her former residence
That’s Life
Colonel Cassidy told his wife.

  Now Polly’s far from pulling pints at the Shallalah Bar in Queen’s Park
She’s a fine mind going to waste and needs class
She breaks
Only the most expensive hearts.

  Now she wouldn’t win your vote or a war or the Pulitzer prize
But she’s afloat in a sea of ideas and besides she oozes
poetry
Line by Line.
