this takes us swiftly past the breaking ice
to the safe waters where all things are clear
so we are worthy of the sacrifice
those matters are immediate precise
lacking no sign of honour or of care
this takes us swiftly past the breaking ice
we thought to have been finished in a trice
and to have shown some dignity and flair
so we are worthy of the sacrifice
those who shall come do not think we are nice
nor will speak plainly of the old affair
this takes us swiftly past the breaking ice
we could do nothing to call or entice
any who were not awake or aware
so we are worthy of the sacrifice
we have now earned our supplement of rice
to feed our hunger in the changing air
this takes us swiftly past the breaking ice
so we are worthy of the sacrifice
Odd ravings, comments, and other wastes of time. Some are in plain prose, yet others are in rhyme.
