I don't think Lennon is a zombie more likely one of the free willed undead like a wight or a lich or somesuch.

Anyhoo you've left me the chorus so here goes:

You may say I'm a sneezer
And my nose runs on and on
But in a world without pollen
We won't have to say bless you (achoo)

Saw that. And liked it on facebook.

It is going to be excruciatingly hot tomorrow. I hope my boss doesn't actually expect me to do any work. If he does he will be sorely disappointed.

I vote on quitting work and becoming writers of the poetical.

I got at least 3 likes on fb so that means that we are clearly already famous and everyone will want to by our wonderful words!

Clearly we are wasting our talents on boring work. We should start on an epic browncoat poem.

This bit will be in the middle somewhere:

Inara rushing in finery clad
Running down the catwalk
After dodging the Vixen
Through the gangway
And down the ladder

Mal on the ground
Stirring not at all
A skip in her heart
As she searches for life

A kiss of elation
As she espies breath
The taste lingers there
Of the balm of the witch
"Oh, you stupid son of a Bi...."

OK, here is a first stab at the first bit of the first episode retold in maybe not all that great verse. There are no doubt rough spots but this is a bit of a taste.

Hearken now to tales well told
Of Feds and Reavers and Browncoats bold
Of Companions and scoundrels set into verse
We hope that our rhyming won't make it worse

A hard fighting battle in valley Serenity
Browncoats at bay their backs to the walls
Malcolm and Zoe fighting for freedom
A sergeant and corporal hearing the call

Rallying defiance in the face of great odds
Impossible accomplishment the mark of the mighty
Just a while longer and deliverance comes
In the form of air cover all gracefull and flighty

A skiff in the air raining down death
A bold plan of action to shoot it down
Brave Malcolm charges a prayer on his lips
Zoe his backup against guns all around

Uncaring of danger Mal runs for the AA gun
Zoe behind him protecting his ass
Taking the triger he trains the sights
An alliance airship explodes into gas

With great jubilation Mal calls for support
From angels on high with terrible vengeance
Bendis is cowering afraid for his life
His fear out of place too prety to die

A roar in the distance of ships in formation
Mistaken for angels by the hard pressed
Defenders of Hera atop lonely rocks
The order is given to lay down arms

Mal uncomprehending looks out on the field
An eternal instant constructed of loss
Bendis behind him too prety no more
Falls to the ground returning to dust

Wow. That's a great start. My creative juices are all dried up at the moment. They have been sponged up by the mop of reality! However, as of about two hours ago I turned 33! SO, I'm gonna forget reality for today and maybe just maybe some of that creativity will creep back in.
