The Emperor of Ice-Cream

Call the roller of big cigars,

The muscular one, and bid him

In kitchen cups concupiscent curds.

Let the wenches dawdle in such

As they are used to wear, and let the

Bring flowers in last month's newspapers.

Let be be finale of seem.

The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.

Take from the dresser of deal.

Lacking the three glass knobs, that

On which she embroidered fantails

And spread it so as to cover her face.

If her horny feet protrude, they

To show how cold she is, and dumb.

Let the lamp affix its beam.

The only emperor is the emperor of ice-cream.
