Mr. Plum |
| The curious person is Mr Plum |
| Never Plum (?) |
| Though he had a one foot leg |
| A one foot trunk |
| & a head going one foot high |
| He juggled daggers without buzz |
| & sent them flashing through the sky |
| Always a child & never a man |
| Poor Mr Plum |
| The dwarf |
| He courted Big Bella the bareback rider & tried her |
| He juggled she rode … |
| Soon were the appearance of an angelic son |
| Who caught their days & stole their nights |
| They called him Gabriel … |
| Always a child & never a man |
| Glad Mr. Plum |
| The dwarf |
| Sweet Gabriel brought them joy for seven years |
| Blast all fears |
| Then suddenly to the dwarf’s dismay |
| This brillant boy grew taller day by day |
| Soon the son outgrew his heir |
| And joy to jealousy gave away |
| Always a child & never a man |
| Sad Mr. Plum |
| The dwarf |
| Poor Mr Plum grew sick & cold with envy |
| With envy |
| Then one night the moon in his head |
| & moaning in secret |
| He wished his son dead |
| A roar of rath |
| He flashed his knife |
| & Severed Gabriel’s head |
| Always a child & never a man |
| mad Mr. Plum |
| The dwarf |
| As favour to the ___ of the condemned |
| Like a friend |
| The hangman … |
| But the mad dwarf shouting |
| Shattered the … |
| No I want to die like a man |
| And the hangman he… |
| No longer a child at last a man |
| … Mr Plum |
| The dwarf (x 9) |
