Fred Spock was a clumsy man
and dangerous with a drill.
He decided he would build a house
and thought it would be brill
iant to build it out of wood
en planks that he could cut and join to
gether into walls. For good
ness sake! He cried out loud
when he was told the price
es. I’ll cut my own from yonder for
est, they’ll turn out just as nice.
He took his axe and bought a lad
der and drove out to the wild
derness, where he began a chop
ping at the trees so mild
ewed. He hacked and cut but all
he got was just a heap of saw
dust to show for all his sweat,
without enough to build a door
frame. Finally he real
ised he didn’t have the skill so
me people have to join stuff up.
A bit like me and this po
em.
