My happy and rhythmical neep of the day!

I shall send a special gold  "LICENSE TO PARSE"  sticker to anyone who can identify the metre in that last line :}

I'll take tetrameter!
Amphibrachic? While I was after "one iambus, then three anapaests" i'm happy enough with amphibrachic; it sounds like a particularly delicate type of seahorse :}

Btw, I just realised, I think I've packed my sticker making supplies (foiled!). Would you like a certificate that says "LICENCE TO PARSE" or a fridge magnet? Yes, I will make them, or hire my tiny minions to do the same!

yeah, wish i could. it feels fairly remote right now.
at least the jobs here pay well and the flatmate is highly reliable (and puts up with The Sink of Doom, to which i am about to add another rinsed dish before going to nap until this cold goes away!)
