O Ian, dear, I wrote 'bout Sharks in Space
Just for your page; now for you I've a task:
What I want most in life's to see your face
Beneath a foil propeller beanie. Ask
Not why it's so; I no longer recall
Just how this project really got its start
(Though I know that it's my fault, after all).
My wish is true; it comes straight from my heart.
And such a little thing I do request:
Here even are instructions for just how
To build the hat. You can make up the rest!
As long as there's a spinner 'bove your brow
When it's all done. You think sonnets are free?
Now off to work. You've got 'til half-past three.

Lol! But I need 5ft of Reynolds Wrap! That's one hefty foil beanie! That should defend against aliens, mind control devices, gamma-rays and falling masonry! I'll get on it, don't you worry. I'm eyeing up the tin foil in the kitchen, but it will have to wait til after dinner, I'm not running out of foil before I've baked!
ReplyDeleteAwesome sonnet :) :)
OK, deadline extended. Though I suspect you're already at least half-baked (rimshot) ^_^
ReplyDeleteIf this hat should come to existence
ReplyDeleteI say with much persistence
It shall be worn upon his head
while he dances in Club Twitter
Shown via video or webcam for all to see
Then and only then shall we truly squee.
That is all.

Then and only then will we really squee!
