White swan black peat
What contrast of purity
The lamb bleats
The polar bear's ferocious teeth
Black swan white peat
Turn on, turn off
The television static
In a graveyard cough
So gravelly and grave and sooty
And sweep
So much blurring, fuzzy channels
I can get no sleep
White swan, black peat
Like a plesiosaurus
Of the ancient stage
Long necked nessy,
From Walter Scott's page
White knights, black page
Black night, white sheet
White swan, black peat
