There was an old person whose zeal
Made him bug-eyed and tense at the wheel.
He wasn’t much fun, and they said he was un-
representative of their ideal.

There was an old man from Sichuan,
Who directed the kids on his lawn.
He was rather aloof, and would sit on the roof,
And descend only when they had gone.

Preserved in a jar of tequila.

Hymenopterous person named Wheeler.

Four fifths of his life was a battle.
He argued and fought, but eventually thought,
“It is time to desist from the battle.”
