The poems of Shel Silverstein




This week I reread a book I first encountered about 40 years ago - Don't Bump the Glump, by Shel Silverstein. Above are some sample pages.

I was disappointed to discover that I had totally misremembered my favorite creature. It really should be a Quick-Digesting Geeth. That's what I'm going to continue to use if/when I recite the poem for anyone.
