In memoriam Robert Moog, inventor of the famous Moog Synthesiser (from 'Private Eye')


So. Farewell
Then Robert Moog.
Pronounced to rhyme with
‘Vogue’,
Not ‘fugue’.

Your invention
Revolutionised the
World of popular
Music.

Keith informs me
That it was used by
The Doors, Yes, and even
The Beatles.

Woeeeezzeeerrrreeeyyyeerdddooing!

It is hard to convey
The effect of your
Great invention in
A poem of
This Kind
