A Conversation between a Homeowner and a Visiting Stepfather
The homeowner:
“O should we warn your kids that my yard fence
Is now electrified against possums
And foul raccoons most pestiferous?”
The stepfather:
“No.”
The former address, "reactionary drivel," was a P. G. Wodehouse gag that few ever understood to be a mildly self-deprecating joke. Drivel, perhaps, but not reactionary. Neither the Red Caps nor the Reds ever got it.
