You're sure this isn't just a badly spelled version of codswallop, which seems the most likely explanation for its not appearing in any dictionary that I currently have access to?

bilby commented on the word codswallow
Oh assuredly you are not of the gay gudgeon-garglers!
The coy shark-ingesters and indulgent schnarfarglers!
So drop a slimy carp and be inducted to follow
The murky digestive of the troop of codswallow!
