Ode dear! Your poems are getting verse

No room for your English poems this week, more next week. However, last week we brought you meaningless French poetry. What could be more pointless?
We ask, and luckily Gavin Hardy, at Creative Direction, was on hand to tell us. He helpfully supplies us with some meaningless Latin poetry: ‘Derigo forte oryx enumaro/Demo oryx demens trux/Fulgio casso pignus dux’.
Which, says Gavin, if you say it quickly enough, sounds like: ‘There they go/Forty lorries in a row/They aren’t lorries/They are trucks/Full of cows and pigs and ducks.’ Well… almost.
