Poetry: "No Doctor’s Today, Thank You" by Ogden Nash (read by John Lithgow)

Описание: "No Doctor’s Today, Thank You" by Ogden Nash

They tell me that euphoria is the feeling of feeling wonderful
well, today I feel euphorian
Today I have the agility of a Greek god and the appetitite of a
Victorian
Yes, today I may even go forth without my galoshes
Today I am a swashbuckler, would anybody like me to buckle
any swashes?
This is my euphorian day
I will ring welkins and before anybody answers I will run away
I will tame me a caribou
And bedeck it with marabou

I will pen me my memoirs
Ah youth, youth! What euphorian days them was!
I wasn't much of a hand for the boudoirs
I was generally to be found where the food was
Does anybody want any flotsam?
I've gotsam
Does anybody want any jetsam?
I can getsam
I can play chopsticks on the Wurlitzer
I can speak Portuguese like a Berlitzer
I can don or doff my shoes without tying or untying the laces because
I am wearing moccasins
And I practically know the difference between serums and antitoccasins
Kind people, don't think me purse-proud, don't set me down as
vainglorious
I'm just a little euphorious
