Using Delores' Wednesday's words:
Servitude, plodding,
cast iron, frequent, fanny, desperation
Join us! This is fun!
Our chief of Under-the-Porch-Light fame,
Forever blessed be your name,
Our servitude we
pledge to you.
As we pen prose all fresh and new.
With cast iron
will we set to work,
And struggle not to go berserk
Upon our fannies
do we sit,
And strain to make the verses fit.
Your pithy words do us inspire,
And all our faculties require,
To try to make our plodding
way,
And skill'fly use your words today.
With frequent dabbings
of our brow
We play with ‘twist’ and ‘pot’, and ‘plow’.
Occasionally, your evil bent,
Leaves us unsure where our brains went.
We grumble but we persevere,
The challenge sent each week, all year,
And so, your words, you see, appear
Penned in desperation here.
Whew! Six more days till I again
Must take a cudgel to my brain!
