Rex the King

What pleasures may we bring
To suit the jaded tastes of Rex the king
Who, in his dreary dudgeon doth demand
Diversions daily, amusements marvelous and grand

100 texas cowboys twirling lariots
White horses seven score, to draw the royal chariots
A ship with silken oars that floats in air
A man in chains, an ice-cream cone, a bear

Fair-skinned maids with hair of white
From far Borealis, land of northern light
Dusky maids of Nubia, so wise
With crimson secrets between their thighs

A giant with oak-tree arms
A faded love restored to all her former charms
An enemy upon his knees
All these and more we bring to Rex the king in hopes to please
