Quangowocky
10 Jan
(With apologies to Lewis Carroll's Jabberwocky while using the official nonsense words from the new reading test for six year olds.)
'Twas reading and, at Gove's behest
No consultation must delay
All nonsense was the phonics test
That the kids had sat that day.
"Beware the real words, my son!
That mean something, that rhyme and match!
Beware the meaningful and shun.
Yurk, dar, grint are the new batch!"
He took his vengsome sword in hand:
Long time the Revolution's foes he sought
So rushed he to the Maoist tree,
T'see what he could import.
And as in doitish thought he stood,
The Quangowock, with eyes aflame,
Quoam pronking through the sprunchy wood,
And ploobled as it came.
One, two, One two! And through and through
The vengsome blade went doit and gax.
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And, has thou slain the Quangowock?
Come to my arms, my doitish boy!
O quangless day! No QCDA!"
He chortled in his joy.
'Twas policy and at Gove's behest
No consultation must delay
All whimsy was the Bacc'ltest,
Awarded retrospectively.
