THE BOOK OF
FROGS
OTHERWISE KNOWN AS THE BOOK OF GLORY
The Frogs get another shot at glory
Chapter 31
Coming along in the wake of the Franco-Prussian thing, the Frog impressionist artists thought the world might look better if it were out of focus,
2Which convinced kClaude Monet to do two dozen million lsigned paintings of water lilies,
3All out of focus,
4While mRenoir painted thousands of women who were probably very beautiful,
5If you could see what they looked like.
6And there was also nDegas, who painted fuzzy ballerinas,
7And oSeurat, who painted fuzzy dots,
8And pToulouse-Lautrec, who was even shorter than Napoleon,
9And painted the Paris slums the way they would look if you drank qwormwood twenty-four hours a day for years,
10Until he died.
