"Qui fit L'ombre d'Eric ?
C'est Paulin Limayrac
Cric !
Crac !"
Je crois, c'est, dans ce livre (dont j'ai oublié le nom), que, la première fois j'ai appris
l'existence de la forme poétique dite "limerick". Paraît-il, d'après l'auteur, c'en était un
et, sorti de la plume de Baudelaire. Plus tard, j'ai lu le Pichois/Ziegler (une bio épaisse
de Monsieur Charles). Le quatrain y est cité, page 219 de l'édition en dur et cartonné. Il
y est dit que l'épigramme est anonyme mais... mais... mais... pas d'fumée sans feu.
Baudelaire mardi dernier, Baudelaire aujour'dhui et, d'après vous de qui sont ces "Hiboux"
psalmodiés par le Choeur du Corbeau Mort ?

"Who did L'Ombre d'Eric?

It's in that book that, I believe, (sorry me if the name is forgotten)
for the first time I learnt the existence of a poetic form called
limerick. Apparently, according to the author, that one was and plus,
it came out from Baudelaire's mind. Later, I read the Pichois/Ziegler
(a thick bio of Mr Charles). The quatrain got a mention, p.219 in
the hardback edition. It is said there that the epigramme was
anonymous but... but... but... no smoke without fire.
Baudelaire last week, Baudelaire today and, who, do you think,
wrote these "Owls" droned out in tones by Dead Raven Choir ?
If limericks you want,
limericks you'll get

and here's my personal rhymes :
"there once was a young lady named Tara comin'
from Ohio, as Lycia she's singin'
and she met Stone Breath Timothy
maybe 'twas 'round a cup of tea
I can't tell if day was happy black or tea green"
