12:29 am	Insta Burped out by the force of posts by annathepiper and ladyqkat: I'm a new bouzouki, long and lean. Pear-shaped my body, paired ev'ry string. When I feel your fingers, hear me sing, And through my music your soul will ring. (Comment on this)

1:21 am	On Making My Child Do Homework Like trees, your kids, you have to grow 'em, Like branches, limbs, and veins like phloem; As up they go, you think you know 'em -- Until they snap And spill their sap When forced to face a poem! (1 Comment |Comment on this)

11:18 am	Winter sartorial advice If you go out in the cold today, Wear gloves and a scarf and hat. "I'll only be there a sec," you say, But skin'll freeze just like that. And cells that freeze have crystals of ice That cut their membranes -- isn't that nice? And when they thaw You may experience Gangrene! (ttto "Teddy Bears' Picnic") (Comment on this)

1:46 am	A Saturday in May Each year, our Scout troop helps place flags on the graves at nearby Camp Nelson's military cemetary on the Saturday before Memorial Day. This year, while we were doing so, "In Flanders Field" ran mangled through my mind, and came out so: (with apologies to Lt Col John McCrae) This day in May, by morning's glow, We see the stones fill, row by row, Camp Nelson's fields, where, when they die, So many heroes come to lie, And where we learn the debt we owe. As country called, they'd bravely go From those they loved, who loved them so; The torch they passed we still hold high, This day in May. No more their battle with the foe, So here our gratitude we show By naming each as we walk by, And on each grave a flag we fly That waves as gentle breezes blow, This day in May. (Comment on this)
