Text
The Carcajou and the Kincajou
by Ogden Nash
They tell me of a distant zoo
Where a carcajou met a kincajou.
Full soon to savage blows they came
From laughing at each other’s name.
The agile ajous fought till dark.
And carc slew kinc and kinc slew carc.
And beside the conquered kincajou
Lay the carcass of the carcajou.
