Poem 101: Enter Bastard. Solus.

Wherefore base. Bastard? Base?
Spelled same:bass and bass
as in bass clef
and bass boaet

bass? bass?
which one am I saying:
one rhymes with face
while other rhymes with ass.

of course I know
it comes from the Latin
base
plus 'tard'

to be dealt with later
as in the art, or,ars, of.

I hope you're getting this.

bass plus tard: bastard
means 'begot in a saddle'

tis why I am alive:
so,
let copulation thrive
