Glad to see this on Front page.

Many fave parts but this is the top fave:

Occasionally someone will
jump onto the stage
from a side balcony box
shouting,
“Sic semper tyrannis!”
but it's a long jump -
and they always break a limb.

The only word for it is delightful. I should have said it the first time I read it and I have read it many times. You know, my mood actually determines whether the read is sad or happy or somewhere in between.

Just delightful.

I think I'll change my facebook language to Pirate English in honor of your poem!

Reminds me of a bumper sticker I saw:

To Err is human.
To Arr is pirate.

Did the car have NC plates? I heard a lot of Arrs while in Raleigh ;)
