an eighth new poem...'absurd'

Paulie wanted to ask
Madge on a date.
Still it seemed absurd
To him, in part, because
They had known each other for
Seven years. So one evening
Paulie dressed as Mother Goose,
Drank eleven cans of
Oranjeboom, read a picture
Book on Duckbill Platypi,
And phoned Madge.
Madge answered promptly,
But Paulie could only
Splutter and quack in reply.
