The opening poem contains all the words (or variations of them) from today's Jumble.
Comments are welcomed! And couching them in Poetry is definitely NOT required.
Do not explicitly reveal any of the actual answer words until after closing time, but embedding them surreptitiously in comment sentences is encouraged.
Looks like I can use the extra Sunday J-words to compose two haiku, back-to-back.
ReplyDeleteIf I do, I'll look for another day off in the coming week.

Background: For a few years, I did academic research into the relationship between hypnosis and dramatic acting. Incidentally, I came across the myth that some domestic animals are highly suggestible, or…

The origin of
Pup’s broke fibula’s unique.
He’d gotten coddled…
…and cuddled, up to
the point of trance induction;
then… dreamt he was Braque.

My last guess I think I'd run out of possible first letters
I just found six js and 2/3 of the riddle-solution. Who was that guy who was always dreaming of greatness. Mr McGoo?

"Judgement"
ReplyDeleteThe court was inclined to agree
to support the defendant's plea.
His origin was unique
so they gave him time to speak.
They were not inclined to coddle
but the case might be a role model.
But the defendant's argument sucked
about how the mob did him induct.
That sounded pretty glib
and they decided it was a fib.
So they sentenced him to jail
and he has not gotten any bail.
You’re on the right track, Wilbur. But be sure to distinguish between a painter and a pointer.
ReplyDeleteGOTTEN is one of my least favorite English words. There is no usage or tense for it that doesn’t work better with plain “Got.”
Your defendant can’t complain, Misty; the court showed him every courtesy—making allowance for his origin and wanting his model case to play out.
Your poem traces these steps clearly. Too bad for him that he lost, but with our legal system, he can look forward to year after year of appeals.

Tough one today. Few frequent letters to start...

ReplyDeleteI cant wait for the big day, and the honeymoon will be unique
But so is Chester, I'd marry him and honeymoon in Dubuque
He doesn't coddle me even after my fibula strain
"Up and att'em honey, remember 'No pain, no gain'"
We've gotten so close and the origin of our romance is sweet
A seedy bar, khaki pants and that bouffant hairdo on me.
He thought joining AA was like induction into the Army
I said "keep an open mind ", later he was inclined to agree.

Well, Wilbur, I thought we might hear from Lois post-wedding, but it's still in the offing. I look forward to reading about the way that honeymoon went, as well.
ReplyDeleteWilbur, I appreciate reading Lois' sentiments about marriage to "Chester."
ReplyDeleteBut I can't quite tell if her idea of a "honeymoon in Dubuque" is where she believes they will actually go--
OR,
Is she expressing a love for him so full that it will endure even a "honeymoon in Dubuque"?!

OMK, great verse once again, many thanks. I had to look up Braque--never heard of that word. Turns out it's a French hunting dog described as "social, obedient, athletic"--sounds like a great Pup!
ReplyDeleteWilbur, so nice to have the Chet and Lois story continue. Thanks for that too.
