Wow. Just- Wow :-D

And this might now get exposed to a whole class of Freshmen.

We're talking about intertextuality/parody on the monday after spring break, and I was already going to use "The Is Just To Say", "Variations On A Theme By William Carlos Williams" and the long string of these when Billy Collins was on A Prairie Home Companion.

I'm half tempted to go to the grocery store and buy plums for the whole class. (rumor has it that we have a $2.00-per-student allowance for food each semester)
