Since the election is going so well (keep talking, Marlowe, I'll just sit back and watch), and since I'm (surprise) low on time, I'm going to freestyle (not drop rhymes -- put your drawers back on, ladies -- I'mma just riff un peu in prose) about the houseguest from hell, who just finally left chez Chaucer

Everyone has something awkward to say
Yet the words don't come, or they can't suffice
Frightening it is to hope for some lice.
At least then we would stray from thoughts of love
And in surrender raise our hands above.
That's all I've got. I hope it's all right, though it obviously can't compare to yours, or obviously, anyone else's. I'm not exactly a poet... But I hope it works.
