Revenge of the Sonnetteer

Written by Anakin McFly

In sooth, I know not why he speaks like that.
A Jedi should be understood by most
Most students of the Force are so, but yet
This Jedi Master in that cannot boast.
Old age, it may have addled Yoda's brain
Or learning Jedi ways hath made him mad
But it gives English teachers lots of pain
Because his sentence structure's kind of sad.
Each utt'rance chopped in two and swapped around
What a feat of language acrobatics
Perhaps he knows not how weird he doth sound
Or else he only speaks like that for kicks
A lost case, this Jedi Master Yoda
Perhaps that's why they left him on Dagobah.
