Ann,
Yours does scan nicely, but so does Joe's first example with line read as a
pair of anapests.

Guys...
Note nowhere in H B's Wiki does it mention (at least I didn't see it) as
one of his accomplishments...
Yours still doesn't scan Joe :(
So I give you the ann edited version of Steve's original post.
mister bayer
was a purveyor
of style so simple and pure
that when he expressed it
most found it eclectic
so his writings remain quite obscure
This turned out to be fun :-)

that doesn't scan too well - don't think
e. e. would have approved
yes i admire e. e., but i'm not his protégée
i refer to herbert bayer
to deflect the reflex
that cummings rules the miniscules
I hope you enjoyed my variations, Ann.
Sorry Steve. I had to clean up the grammar, shorten for brevity, and punctuate.
Mister Bayer
was a purveyor
of style so simple and pure,
though he oft expressed it
t'was found too eclectic
thus his writings remain quite obscure.

Mister Bayer
was a purveyor
of pills so simple and pure,
though he oft expressed it,
at times was quite hectic,
thus his pain remained a bit dour.
