If all the world were paper
& all seas ‘pon it were ink
then brave mariners overboard
risked only they might think.
& all typhoons and maelstroms
the opinions of rash men
with latitudes and longitudes
our mathematic guidance therein
If all vessels that essayed forth
conquered as were planned
then humanity might brunt
such poetry ‘pon land
But such poetry we’ll never read
‘cept in Angler’s lines
and if the moon were character
We’d fish up true our rhyme.
This poem was written by IG Agent 79, written to assert that he too is a great poet like everybody’s favorite: Agent 18.
