Elegy Poem by Alan Dugan

Elegy

Rating: 3.4


I know but will not tell
you, Aunt Irene, why there
are soap suds in the whiskey:
Uncle Robert had to have
A drink while shaving.

Well, he told her anyway, didn't he? And the title Elegy is facetious, for this short little poem is anything but melanchly!
