Saragun Verse
(Ed note–Dame Daisy is well known for her little “beefs” with members of the realm. These poetic dust ups, even with her nemesis the Lambs, are usually over fairly quickly. They mostly stem from opinions about the Moving Hoof’s beloved adverbs; hence the missive of the day. Her use of small case letters is indeed sarcastic.–LA)

i
the billigits are everywhere
flying phoney little squares
too wholesome too cute sez I this moving hoof
too Osmondy with their big grinning tooths
ii
dear billigits where have we errly erred
we were once as close as under and wear
but time its sad selfly self hath decreed
that you be pithy and I adverby
iii
oh what vilely vile little scorners
who skimp on fairness and so close borders
i seethly seeth over their obloquy
the finks have for we the adverbally
iv
your kind knows oh so little compassion
we see you as pains in the assassin
the hemingway song of your boozely wit
speaks only of dying by killing shit
(Second Ed note–To date the billies have yet to reply; but I’m sure one is coming–LA)
Saragun Springs

It’s a joy to wake up every morning first thing and read Saragun Springs’ latest installment; the returning and disappearing characters add levels of intrigue, and the various tones and points of view that are on the table for that day always add variety.
And the unique blend of wit and seriousness, wild humor and deep themes is ever fresh and always one of a kind!
I actually woke up at 7 a.m. today and had the pleasure of reading this then had to run off for errands, etc…….
A poem that can invent the word Osmondy and utilize the word obloquy within two stanzas of each other is almost anarchistically original and that’s just one example, the same poem is packed with other language just as original…

Hi Dale
I am certain I replied yesterday but I wonder where it went?
Regardless, as always I am deeply appreciative of the thought you put into your comments.
Ha! somehow Osmondy got capped. Probably should leave it that way. One thing Mormons have got going for them is great teeth!

Daisy seems particularly snarky

so did that one. I am obviously being haunted this morning. Unless it’s Ms Kloverleaf sending out bad vibes. Anyway, as I say she sounds rather narked and if I was a billigit I’d be finding something to do in the cellar today. Thank you dd

Hi Diane
I am considering bringing some Border Collies in to do some herding. Two might direct Daisy, but she’d probably herd them.
Thank you!
