Title: Why Is A Raven Like A Writing Desk?
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
And why does it cry fowl play?
When it is neither a goose or a turkey
And it's certainly not Christmas Day.
Why is a raven like a writing desk?
The mad hatter asked Alice this riddle
"Your hair wants cutting" he carried on
And whistled to an invisible fiddle
The Internet says:
...as a group they are both responsible for many murders?
Although a group of Ravens is an 'Unkindness'. A group of Crows is a 'Murder'.
Easy. A writing desk is a rest for pens and a raven is a pest for wrens.
Poe wrote on both
Because there is a 'b' in both and an 'n' in neither
Because it can produce a few notes, tho they are very flat; and it is nevar put with the wrong end in front!
Because neither is ever approached without caws
Alice was perplexed by this rudeness
The mouse wrote a song in his head
It was, "Living Next Door To Alice"
Well, who the **** is Alice?
