Rebel rebel your iambic pentameter's a mess...
An in-form-ative and also somewhat de-formed 55, bringing total delight. You are hereby awarded the glitter bunny diploma signifying graduation with honors from U. of Rock.
OK - still mulling that fox thing.
ReplyDeleteHedge--thank you for your analysis. All I can say is, *we love dancin' and we look divine...*
ReplyDeleteLynn--I've got a million of 'em. ;-)
why does it not surprise me you have a million foxes...form is just another way to restrain you...and restraint is rarely good unless foxes are involved...
ReplyDeleteThe expression on Cat's face is utter disdain... love it!
ReplyDeleteYou like bands when they're playing hard . . .
ReplyDeleteOh, wait; are we not doing that anymore?
That certainly brought a smile to me!

ReplyDelete"..form is just another way to restrain you."
