Puffer Jokes Poem by Douglas Scotney

The fun you have making fun of puffers:

'The French call them souffles, ' you say.
You address a wearer, 'Your puffiness'
and 'I say, you look bloated today.'
(Alors, aujourd'hui tu as l'air bouffi.)

You puff when you see one -
puff harder seeing two;
hyperventilate with four,
and more:

You carry a pump to a puffer party;
and I have just been taught
by Christopher Patten:
an excuse-maker for Chinese behaviour
is a China-puffer for short.
