[DISCLAIMER: This is a fictive poem, addressed to a fictive audience by a fictive speaker.]
Did they really think Ariel was a Fairy,
mincing about on the state in pastel tights
(pink, or light blue, or maybe even cranberry)?
And do they think that poor sap, Caliban,
is just a maligned and misunderstood, somewhat awkward, man?
Or can evening windmills be spotted by flickering midsummer lights?
