I sit here now trying to devise a rhyme,
to describe how my work has suddenly shifted its paradigm,
but it's like sucking on a lime,
so far from sublime,
but listen to me, trying to rhyme my whine...
Tis clear, I need my peas,
a good suck'll cheer me,
and as quick as one, two, three,
we'll be good friends again, my work and me
To the mighty salamander I say,
dance on the fire, in the fire, but please...
don't ever retire.
The whir of my hard drive,
the thought of my hard life,
another day without progress,
my thoughts at their slowest.
Where is my yellow brick road?
progress is obstructed by a track with a smelly green toad,
be gone retardant of my brain,
for already as a poet I'm really lame.
As the king of this thread I leave you with this thought,
if you buy a Phd you'll eventually be caught.
smelly green toad!
Toads are great, there was a snipped on BBC Radio 4 about them last night...
I can't keep up with the rhyming....
failing to keep up with the rhyme
i must sadly resign
and return to dine
and get to work wth the chime
of the passage of time....
I've had it with the rhyming,
now I feel is the appropriate timing,
to concede defeat to Aloha,
I'm glad just glad I don't know her (him...?)*
To stand in her* shadow would be scary,
I'd feel as weak as a tiny fairy.
But I've had a good time with the rhyming,
Chrisrolinki thought my powerful imagery was a nice thing,
And I must do some work,
Or my supervisor will go beserk.
But I'll always be the winner on this thread,
Even if I do write with dry prose instead.
if my goatee couldn't be removed with a razor,
i would try and burn it with a tazer,
failing that i would apply a lazer.
