Bless thy five wits

Do you think I would leave you fishing, when there's room in my four for six of one and half a dozen of the other, woman on the verge of a nervous ticking away from it all or nothing but the best in the west winds of war of words to the wise old owl.

    Gibberish was a little fish,
    Its noses were green and sorrow.
    It planted a man
    On the top of a van
    And it sang like there's no tomorrow.

(TODAY IS THE TOMORROW YOU WORRIED ABOUT YESTERDAY...

AND ALL IS FISH.) Always now. And again is as good as a gift horse. "Neigh, Neigh and thrice neigh" quoth the gift horse. "Stop messing around," his friend replied, sighed and nearly died — for in that sleep of death what dreams may come, when we have left the kettle on the boil. Double, double, toil or quits. Bless thy five wits, Tom's a-cold and a nod's as good as a wink to toe of bat and eye of newt. What can one say? Two.

But enough word association football.

"Good game, Saint, at the end of the day
It's a game of 90 minutes and we're only halfway..."
to heavens above is that the time to buy a new watched pot calling the kettle black as night of the long knives forks and spoonful of sugar and spice and all the way home sweet home. Next!

Goodnight

    Strangs. (Loopy?)

    Sleepy strings
And tweety things
And bumps that go ping! in the night.
