In Response to: Tiger Tales
I thought this poem might serve to entertain my fellow Tigers, in this time of corona.
The Tiger Counsels the Bulldog
I note you are a Yalie, friend,
I do forgive you that.
Not everyone’s cut out to be,
A lithesome Tiger Cat.
Your school is in New Haven,
In that hidebound Nutmeg State,
While Princeton is a garden spot,
Old Nassau is first rate.
What does the pug-faced bulldog do,
But bark and slobber drool?
While Tigers growl a fearsome roar,
And do their domains rule.
I offer you a chance, my friend,
To shed that Yalie blue,
Join the Princeton Seminary,
And spread the good word too.
