The Minor Shakesperean Scholar Raises Questions

[DISCLAIMER:  This is a fictive poem, addressed to a fictive audience by a fictive speaker.]


Did they really think Ariel was a Fairy,

mincing about on the state in pastel tights

(pink, or light blue, or maybe even cranberry)?


And do they think that poor sap, Caliban,

is just a maligned and misunderstood, somewhat awkward, man?


Or can evening windmills be spotted by flickering midsummer lights?
