+Time Flies Like an Arrow
+An Ode to Oettinger
+
+Now, thin fruit flies like thunderstorms,
+And thin farm boys like farm girls narrow;
+And tax firm men like fat tax forms--
+But time flies like an arrow.
+
+When tax forms tax all firm men's souls,
+While farm girls slim their boyfriends' flanks;
+That's when the murd'rous thunder rolls--
+And thins the fruit flies ranks.
 
+Like tossed bananas in the skies,
+The thin fruit flies like common yarrow;
+Then's the time to time the time flies--
+Like the time flies like an arrow.
+  -- Edison B. Schroeder (1966)
