A Crossword Setter

Oh these convoluted fellows,
Never do they like to think straight,
With their crosswords and cryptic clues,
They will lead your thinking astray!

Anyone who solves those crosswords,
Is suspicious to the extreme,
With them, never you bandy words,
For they twist them and mangle them!

As to one who sets the damn things,
He is a certified crazy,
For you have to be insane,
To set those infernal things!

Beware, all you my countrymen,
Of all these crossword setters,
There is not one among them,
Who can ever be trusted!
