The Rhyming Cutlets of Pirip

We cannot blame Charles Dickens for not meeting our national treasure Philip P. Pirip, but:

go blame yr rottern Fate;

whos flushs beat yr faces straights      

It could be said, though, Dickens did lend his major characters to Philip P. Pirip, although 'lend' might not be the best word; rather freedom  opened the door to its wide-open spaces to allow them to escape and give vent to their grievances with their famous author, seeing as to how he never once mentioned the fabulous Surnevv diamonds that they once had their hands on and now wanted back at whatever cost to literature.

Eye-opening royalties might have been Charles Dickens's lot but the diamonds were the only avenue for riches beyond creative writing for Miss Haversham, Estella, Mister Jaggers, Compeyson, Orlick, Biddy and a cast of naked 'actrusses' who now demanded their jewel dues and were willing to kill for them.

That escape fell to them after 'Great Expectations' found its way onto one of the heaps in the rubbish tip that was beloved of Pirip and in fact the location of his Tiphome, a dump in itself. From that fact, it was only a short fictional distance for the Dickens's characters to land on Pirip's lap with a vengeance.

They came to lap

but I stukk out tongue, 'take thapt'!

How our poetic national treasure struggles with  these become-villains might not be in any history books but, in universal artistic circles, it set the standard for the license to cull.
