Obligatory Blank Verse Blog Week post
(Er, Blank Verse what? Quod vide, here and here.)
The week containing April twenty-third
Has come and almost gone -- for here it is
Already Thursday -- and I haven't yet
Composed an entry in iambic lines.
What happened to the posts of yesteryear?
I think the answer is I've been too slammed
With other festival observances.
-- Who scheduled Pesach for so late this year??
Last night I did three loads of laundry, swept
And dusted, cleaned the bathroom, made the bed,
And got a jump on packing up chametz.
Tonight we finish shopping for the seder
(Though 14 pounds of brisket was a start;
And where can I buy Sabra in this town?),
Pick lonebear up at 9:07 sharp
From Logan, then head back to Porter Square
To store up sushi 'gainst the coming week
When rice and soy will be prohibited.
(Tomorrow night, conversely, after shul,
The plan is for a run to Mary Chung's...
Say 8:15, for those who want to come!)
