Verse by Charles Edison
[edit]Here is some verse by Charles Edison, published in Bruno's Weekly Feb 19th 1916 under the pseudonym Tom Sleeper.
Biography
A Black crow flapped his wings in a dead tree. At the moment I was born. A camel awoke, stretched and wandered away over the desert; just then my mate came into being. We met quite accidentally at Darjeeling, married, raised five children, built a house, and kept a cat. Later, we died and were buried in the same grave. This completes our history . . . Not that it does anybody any good.
