He's Portuguese, so presumably he also speaks Portuguese.

I'm sure there is a poem somewhere that has orange purple and month in it.

My favourite poem is Antigonish by Hughes Mearns.

"Yesterday, upon the stair,

I met a man who wasn’t there

He wasn’t there again today

I wish, I wish he’d go away...



When I came home last night at three

The man was waiting there for me

But when I looked around the hall

I couldn’t see him there at all!

Go away, go away, don’t you come back any more!

Go away, go away, and please don’t slam the door... (slam!)



Last night I saw upon the stair

A little man who wasn’t there

He wasn’t there again today

Oh, how I wish he’d go away"

Really quite nice!
Liked the use of paradoxes, had me quite confused!
