Persquicious!
  A lobster on a ping pong bat
is kind of curved and kind of flat:
the pimples do not cause it pain,
the concept does not cross its brain
that someone may pick up that bat
and try to beat the lobster flat.

A lobster on a ping pong bat
may click its claws at passing cats;
its carapace is scuttle black,
it does not fear a chance attack:
that someone deft with a ping pong bat
may flick it in a boiling vat.

The ping pong bat is blazing red,
the lobster hangs its soggy head:
to it a needle's not the sword
which, plunged into its spinal cord,
expels that soul, however small,
which parts it from the ping pong ball.

The best places to start with this website are really the Biographemera or the SONAQs, and if you're unsure what a SONAQ is, then start there.If you want to go back to the boiling hot surface, click here.

Why not explore the workings of a boy named T'zu?
