Beware the Jabberwocky, my friend!!!!
The poem is called Jabberwocky and was written by Lewis Carroll. They same guy who wrote Alice in Wonderland.
Here's the complete poem:
(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.
"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"
He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.
And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!
One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.
"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.
`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

It was written by Lewis Carroll. I believe it is from The Jabberwocky.

I can recite the whole thing from memory to this day. It's Jabberwocky by Carroll.
"One two one two his vorpal blade went snickersnack. He left it dead and with its head he went gallumphing back."

Sorry. It sounds like someone with a speech impediment trying to announce the solution in a game of Clue.

Sounds like it is the part about the walrus from "Alice in Wonderland."
