Cried Holmes, "that picture's upside down!
If you could turn it right around
You'd find, on very close inspection,
The real landscape's the reflection!"
Said Watson, "Now you've spoilt it! You
Did just the same at London Zoo.
You said that snake was just an eel
And that the panda wasn't real.
Next time, I'm leaving you at home.
I'm going to the Tate alone."
