"A flame bright of The Ratty Rascals."
~ The Annotator
"I happen to have a bottle of Guinness
Harp Lager,
Oddly enough."
~ Twittering
"That bad, eh?"
~ Raving
"One bottle of beer at a thyme,
Too bottles of beer, if company rhymes,
A damn fine party crafts ~
Take One down. Pass her around.
Minus a bottle of beer leaves none.
An oaken cask, if cellar aged, next round's
On me ~ !"
~ Merlot
"Central Park Safe Again ~
Yes, Twittering,
It's now once again safe to go jogging
In Central Park.
This morning they caught the lone coyote
Menacing there ~ !
Where I used to live, we had coyotes
Living around us all the time.
At night they would awaken us
With their mournful
Chorus of Howls.
They never bothered us at all.
But this is New York City!
They can't have anything really wild
In their park, nothing really natural in their nature preserve.
Only manicured poodles
May walk those woodland paths."
~ Double-A
"Hal The Wily Coyote,
A fan of Shakespeare's Globe.
Hal The Wily Coyote
Came to town, just 1 year old,
He sang his canine song ~
Hal the suburban Wily Coyote
Loped on down to New York City
Trotting down from upstate Westchester.
Hal The Wily Suburbanite
Spent a few Manhattan nights
Signed in [clandestinely] at The Plaza Hotel.
Hal The Wily Intellectual
Trotted on downtown
For a performance of 'Your In Town.'
Hal trotted over, too, just beyond
The Great White Way,
To catch a sight of Falstaff
Barking at the light of the silver moon
At The Belvedere Castle's Globe.
Hal caught a sight of Oberon, too,
Playing A Midsummer Night's Dream
If late, in winter ~
Playing Shakespeare in Central Park ~ !
O but Hal, a wayward Westchester
Coyote, got caught ~
O Hal got caught by The Dog Catcher.
Hal got a shot of tranquilizer.
Hal's going back to Westchester.
O but now Hal's a wiser
Intellectual, a coyote familiar
With William Shakespeare
And The Silver Light of New York City.
Hal says he's coming back, too ~ !"
~ Merrylegs
"O Hal got caught by The Dog Catcher.
Hal got a shot of tranquilizer.
Hal got run down
By a Pack of Hash House Harriers, too.
O but now Hal's a wiser canine traveler.
Hal's going back to Westchester ~
But not without a glossy copy
Of Conde Nasty's Canine Traveler."
~ Mer Loleil

Blog, I'll warrant ye, or dog? Who knows. Pass the grog!
But if ye see me lost pup, please bring that scurvy dog home!
I got Leon a brand-new bone, with a chest full a' booty.
