Little Jack Horner Sits in a corner Extracting cube roots to infinity,An assignment for boys That will minimize noise And produce a more peaceful vicinity. ![]() Some poems, such as The Theory that Jack Built, are pages long and delightfully illustrated. Little Bo Peep Has lost her sheep, The radar has failed to find them.They’ll all, face to face, Meet in parallel space,Preceding their leaders behind them.
