The guests . . . almost respectable,
Decorum . . . undetectible,
The victuals . . . far from succulent,
The service . . . slow but truculent,

The music (?) . . . just incredible,
The canapes . . . inedible,
The glasses . . . loudly clinkable,
The wine . . . well . . . barely drinkable,

The portions . . . economical,
The ostentation . . . comical,
The conversation . . . trivial,
My partners . . . unconvivial,

Some moments . . . unenjoyable,
Some hours . . . quite annoyable,
My presence . . . most regrettable ---
An evening . . . unforgettable!
