ahh the old odd poem from the a "Jabbewocky, Alice through the looking glass" my this is my favorite fairy tale :D ive been reading it so much its so memorible to me on the ENTIRE POEM!
i remember when my teacher made us do like2 whole weeks of work ON this poem ^_^ hehehe and we had to revurs it and say it infront of the whole school XD and now i cannot forget it!
I built a small robot on the bristle bot principle for my niece. It looks, to me, just like a Mome Rath. At the risk of sounding like a spammer, I posted video of it on my page if you would like to see it. Thanks for uploading this. I enjoyed it. Thumbs up.
@rocknrollme6 I memorized it for a grade 10 english class project. I made a 60 min tape of aceylone's version and listened to it for days. That was about 10 years ago and I still know it.
It isn't really supposed to be a creepy poem you guys. Read it again :) I know it's hard to understand, but forget reality and remember your childhood. Everything by Lewis Carroll will become clearer then :)
I did my own version as well - I memorised the poem for a recitation in in fourth grade and still remeber it today. My pronunciation disagrees however. I remember learning to say it with the hard G for gyre and gymbol, but I think the J in frabjous is meant to be a hard consonant as well. I recal there being some direction from Carroll that I was able to read at the time. I had never heard it spoken aloud until I saw Monty Python's Jabberwocky at age 12 or so (around 1983?)!
@HannahMontanaLolol - haha - well I learned it in 4th grade and I still remember it 30 years later! Maybe you will still remember it in the year 2040!
AHHH! He just started yelling this poem. Seriously, for some reason i thought it would sound silky and slimy. He scared me when he started yelling into my headphones!
All of the sound for the poem liked Halloween, and the read narrative vocie was told by the wizard, and it was like a Halloween poem to a night of Mischeif Night in America, and Guy Fwake NIght at Britain, Canada, and Australia!
Great, I love it :) Thanks for posting ~PG~

@JustAudio2008 False. Contrary to popular belief; Lewis Carroll did not do any drugs.
