I've read the works of Lewis Carroll and Edward Lear and was wondering what books do you guys recommend in the "nonsense" style?

>(1) Blue Notebook No. 10
>(or 'The Red-Haired Man')
>There was a red-haired man who had no eyes or ears. Neither did he have any hair, so he was called red-haired theoretically.
>He couldn't speak, since he didn't have a mouth. Neither did he have a nose.
>He didn't even have any arms or legs. He had no stomach and he had no back and he had no spine and he had no innards whatsoever. He had nothing at all! Therefore there's no knowing whom we are even talking about.
>In fact it's better that we don't say any more about him.
This is fucking gold, thank you anon

Song of the Mad Prince

Who said, "Peacock Pie"?
The old King to the sparrow:
Who said, "Crops are ripe"?
Rust to the harrow:
Who said, "Where sleeps she now?
Where rests she now her head,
Bathed in eve's loveliness"? —
That's what I said.

Who said, "Ay, mum's the word"?
Sexton to willow:
Who said, "Green dusk for dreams,
Moss for a pillow"?

Who said, "All Time's delight
Hath she for narrow bed;
Life's troubled bubble broken"? —
That's what I said.
