The they-sound-like-sentences-but-let-me-know-what-they-are-if-you-figure-it-out thingamajigs that follow were posted in the blog forum that shall (or shall not (yeah, you get the drill of cancelling out the two negatives (ooh, spoiler! - negative to follow 8-)))) not be named. Now, this was a coupla years back, so I've no idea which one of my (non-existent (I like to maintain that there are three (but the third one always disagrees and says it is only one))) split personalities took over while writing this.
Do you require? Jan. 5th, 2010
----------------------- ---------------------
"Do you require?",
We happened to enquire.
"Hmm? Let me think..
Blue or Pink?"
A few days later..
"Yes, we do require..
A blue one please, sire"
"Blue it is then..
You need it by when?"
"As soon as possible..
We think it's quite achievable"
"Here work with these..
Special imported geese"
"But these geese are not ours..
We can't even match the hours"
"Matching hours will be a breeze..
Here's the requirements freeze"
A few more days later..
"There is a lot of trouble..
The geese tend to bumble..
The blue looks violet..
Soon it'll be scarlet"
"The geese shall stay..
Do as you may"
"Add some vanilla..
Put it in a manila..
Then shake well and see..
Blue it shall be"
"Why have the geese then?
We can make do with the hen"
"The geese are our pet..
See that the requirements are met"
A few more days later..
"What have you given us?!
All this terrible muss"
"You wanted to keep the geese..
We begged you, we said please"
"You wouldn't listen..
Now to blame us you hasten"
"Blamed you shall be..
No future you shall see"
At which point a hen,
Who was irate by then
Spoke thus..
"Profanities and cuss..
How dare you accuse me..
I demand to be set free"
"Free you we cannot..
Your soul has been bought..
For ten gallons of tea..
You shall serve all the biscuits that be"
"You are the fruitcakes of yore..
Burden of the beasts who bore..
Yet remained loyally at their feet..
Bearing the unbearable heat"
"Go tend to your flock..
The geese are running amok..
They already killed the blue..
Now they are coming after you"
A few more days later..
You shall find out a few more days later..
