Poe proves that Yanks are sensitive
Chapter 71
There was also pMark Twain,
2Whose name was really something else,
3As every Yank knows,
4Something having to do with the qMississippi River,
5Which Twain liked to write about,
6Because it was so full of people who talked in funny rdialects,
7sWhich are just hilarious,
8If you’re a Yank,
9Including ‘Tom Sawyer’ and t‘Huckleberry Hound,’
10Which every Yank just loves,
11And knows practically by heart,
12Because they’re so important to Yank culture,
13For some reason.
