Does Cambridge Have a Comma Too?
Oh, Oxford Comma, let all
hail to thee
You sorter-out of tidy sequencings
Who suffer not confusion
in categories
And marshal your strong words
in battle lines
Oh, Cambridge, poor
Cambridge, you have not
A comma of your own; your
sequencings
Were lost among the fens in
Hereward’s days -
You might want to go
a-fishing for them
Oh, sure, Cambridge,
You have your arts and
poetry and drama
But only Oxford boasts her
very own comma
