Dedicated to Jenny of Ravenclaw

THE SCENE: The infirmary. HARRY, recuperating from his long dark 
night, catches a peculiar glimpse of something in Dumbledore's 
expression

HARRY
Hello, sick bay, my old friend
I'm back in Pomfrey's bed again
Having now survived this night of grief
Dumbledore insisted I debrief
When I told him that Voldemort had executed a swipe-o
Of my Type O
I witnessed a gleam of triumph  

Does Dumbledore think that we'll gain
With Potter blood in Voldy veins?
Is this the Dark Lord's Pyrrhic victory?
Or is Dumble in conspiracy,
Like the anarchists in Thursday who were fighting for both sides?
I can't decide!
The answer from Jo is silence

"Thursday" refers to GK Chesterton's 1904 novel "The Man Who Was 
Thursday: A Nightmare" .  I wanted to put in one line that was as 
cryptic and obscure as the original song., as well as throw in a plug 
for this great masterpiece (available online)
