Rating: Teen for language
Notes: Nonsense poem (In Memoriam stanza)


be-spelted, smelted, melted splooge
befuddled, muddled, puddled pool
be-sweated, unabetted fool
be-baked in cake by no-shade Scrooge

oh ugh just ugh and ugh some more
and eek and squeak like burnished teak
like peck of sol-splint beck and beak
like lone groan-moan of swelter lore

the drip-drop-plip-plop-drip-drop mess
the daze-y, hazy, mazy thick
the go-slow-no-go-never-quick
which deigns to forward an address

the suffer-shudder-shuffle step
the yellow stain that will not yield
the buzzing, undulating field
the over-easy, yolk-broke pep

the sticky wicket, skin-to-seat
which renders moot the suit of cool
reduces faculties to drool
Oh, sod this blazing August heat!

Lovely work.

August is blech. Bring on September! And, more importantly, October!

Thank you! It's very hot this week. I am looking forward to fall as well.
