Poetry Thursday - Does She Like Word-Games? by Wendy Cope

[...it continues over the page...]

She likes sonnets but she doesn't like the sky.

She doesn't like repetition.
She doesn't like repetition.

She doesn't like endings.


The poem appears in Wendy Cope's 1992 collection, Serious Concerns, and is based on a word-game called "Who is Fannee Doolee?" which you can either figure out yourself from the poem or read about here.
