(no subject)
Jun. 26th, 2008 06:51 pmAll day long my language centers have been tied up with doggerel. I haven't any idea where it came from, and it's not even true to the original conception of the named subjects.
Jellicles VERB 1
CONNECTIVE Jellicles VERB 2
OPTIONAL CONJUNCTION The proof of the pudding is FOUR-BEAT PREDICATE.
The FOUR-BEAT PREDICATE rhymes with VERB 2. Example:
Jellicles act
As Jellicles must
The proof of the pudding is under the crust.
There seems to be an unlimited supply of these things.
Jellicles watch
And Jellicles wait
The proof of the pudding is all down to fate.
They prevent me from thinking about much else.
Jellicles plot
And Jellicles plan
But the proof of the pudding is out of their hands.
I'm hoping this post will exorcise them.
Jellicles work
As Jellicles do
The proof of the pudding is now up to you.
I really do have better things to do.
Jellicles see
What Jellicles will
The proof of the pudding is hardly a thrill.
