		<description>.

And that one is veeerry Ogden Nashy with the ridiculous manipulation of line length by the rhymes.

At the risk of acclaiming myself here (because I selected most of the Dores), one of the reasons I mentioned that you should look at the accompanying illustration is that I think one of the strengths of the Fob Bible is how we juxtaposed the works with the images. &quot;Philistina&quot; is a striking poem and, as William says, it gives us a &quot;new point of view — ... something that literature can give us that other forms of discourse can’t.&quot; It&#039;s great to have a new character to consider. But place it alongside the single most awful moment she could imagine and dramatic irony we would have felt anyway is heightened to the realm of horror. Having David hold Goliath&#039;s head aloft prevents us from overlooking just what &lt;i&gt;exactly&lt;/i&gt; she will someday learn happened to her son.</description>

		<description>Seems Ogden Nash may be one of Danny&#039;s inspirations: one of his other poems in the FOB Bible is titled &quot;Jeremiah, a la Ogden Nash.&quot;</description>

		<description>Has Danny been compared to Ogden Nash before? I certainly see a resemblance.</description>
