For The Weekend



dverse
imitate a poet
(apologies again to Will)



Petruchio:

Think you clanging and squawking
of a wounded beast will daunt my intent hag?
Thou will crawlst to thy keeper's call and
be watched like those kites
"that bate and beat
and will not be obedient"


Kate:

"O mad-brained rudesby
full of spleen"

pox'd pestilent puke soured puttock
I would rather die than marry thou ruinous butt
thou burning cinder corniced in a sore eye
thou commonplace ring worm'd cur
thou tassel of a wet rain sodden purse

  3. You should write a poem about that Claudia.
    It must be tricky running along those Swiss roofs in the snow. Just as well you're a gal who wears sensible shoes:)
