Ode to Happy Speedy
Ode to Happy Speedy
Oh Muses! Grant me your blessing
that I may sing the praises of
internet grocery supreme
swift, tireless Happy Speedy!
Chorus: Happy Speedy! Internet Grocery
Supreme, swift Happy Speedy!
Oh Happy Speedy, purveyor of
glucosine delights innumerable,
Swift! The packets soar, and racing
through the ethereal net, arrive.
[chorus]
Now minions assemble grocerial
items numerous and variable
San Pelegrino infused with vapors
carbolical and Deluxe Egg Salad.
[chorus]
Hear now of the cornucopia
DARPA hath wrought, bringing unto us
Lean Pockets Ham and Cheese
and artisinal cupcakes, Hackers Delight!
[chorus]
And swift now! To thine autochariots go
and bring thou the vittles divine
A tip shalt thou receive, and moreso
An ode in thy praise now I sing!

About Scanlyze
Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?
Scanlyze is an online magazine of essays, commentary, satire, and analysis. Were we half as clever, for inspiration we would take Mark Twain, Ambrose Bierce, Swift, Montaigne, or Seneca.
“The men who create power make an indispensable contribution to the Nation’s greatness, but the men who question power make a contribution just as indispensable, especially when that questioning is disinterested, for they determine whether we use power or power uses us.”
John F. Kennedy, October 26, 1963
