About About


 About about is about about
 & about about about is a
 boatsman's reminiscent swagger with a
 hockingstick, a flourish in the air
 telling me about about about,
 what it was about.

 Bossle the boatsman talking about
 about about told me what about
 about was about with a
 swagger who kept swaggling spittany
 (to all our great and inquring doubt)
 on about about about 20ty
 times too, too, too many.

 The boatsman used his hockany to
 cutch a crub, creeping in a long and
 snatchy crubline into Ixcream's-arena
 singing longingly and sweetly of Opotiki
 and the crubs to be found by the shore.
