Skirmishes 07

Does he yap? Does he bark? Does he whisper in your ear?

Skirmishes - brief battles of art, poetry and prose. -

Fox fox fox fox
Forget what he says,
We don't care how he talks.

We care how he dresses
(those fur coats, those socks!)
We care who he's dating
(how big's the ring's rock?)
What music inspires him?
(new kids on the block!)
Who's his favorite team
(seattle seahawks!)
What's his favorite riddle?
(schroedinger's box
because -- see it coming? --
it's a paradox!)
His favorite snack food!
(bagel and lox!)
His favorite kids toy!
(alphabet blocks!)
His favorite ears!
(star trek's mr. spock's!)
Engineering feat most admired?
(the panamanian locks!) Fox fox fox fox
Forget what he says
We don't care how he talks.


(And surely by now, you've seen What Does the Fox Say because actually, we really very madly do care.)
