Hm, that's interesting...

That breed of canine (whichever it is) seems to be becoming quite ubiquitous with illustrated anthropomorphic period fiction, at least I've seen it around once or twice. Perhaps it's the parallel drawn between the odd moustache/beard combinations they had back then.

Anyway, standing around in public spaces reading completley ludicrous (albeit technically correct?) haiku is worthy. This does nothing to shake my adoration of Llewelyn, instead it does much to cement it.

I'm just wondering what manner of huge, history-changing event this past Llewelyn will find himself involved in.

Oh and don't worry Sage, no one should expect you to do something you wouldn't want to. Of course, you can try if you want to... but for fun this time you could try doing it in the style of Yoshi's Island!

(And now I have this image in my head of Llewelyn standing next to a very curious Millicent, warning flatly; "Touch fuzzy, get dizzy.")

Lulz!

As for the coloring, the reason I don't want to color it is panel 3.

This comic is pretty funny
Slightly sweet like clover honey
And yes, Praduur, that breed of canine
Brings me many years back in time
When I was a developing poet
But I really didn't know it
So I sold it to a passerby
For a little piece of apple pie
And now, poetless, I can only type
So I will not expect much hype
Over this poem, for, lame as it may be
It is now on the forum, for all to see.
I cannot go on much longer
(Or I will start making up words like, "blunger"
Better stop and get some rest.
Nice job on this one, D.C.S.!



P.S: Sage, don't color panel three
For a major pain it prove to be
Why don't you rest, and take the time
To develop another verse to this rhyme!
gforce422 is awesome because:
-He made the absolute nicest comments about me in the other topic. I didn't respond to them yet, because I suck, but they are greatly appreciated! =D
-I would say he would also be a good runner up as one of the nicest people alive.
-He joined the IRC sometimes. But not enough, I say! Chat moar =D
-He is evidently only 18 year old but he could easily pass for 25. =D
-He is a drummer like *I* am and this in itself is cool.

I'm a dreadful poet with a stammer,
So I'll just post this up here like a spammer.
For my life I couldn't rhyme,
Takes me far too much time,
I'm really not a pentameter slammer.

Oh noes! Oh noes! Oh noes I say
Please no beatings for today.
Hey guys, lets have some more sweet rhymes,
It's such a good way to pass the time.
(Maybe I'll make it a forum game,
What do you think? Would it be lame?)

Alas! Alas! Our poor old Sage
Stuck like a bird inside a cage
(of lack of poetry, that is)
There are many things you might've missed!
It heals the body, mind, and soul
(though it won't really put food in your bowl)
So there's really not too much to say

Why don't you change "food on the table" for "food in your bowl" so it will all rhyme?

Cameron is awesome because:
-Because he has an artistic style that is both complex and minimalist. This is profound!
-He once drew me as a roadrunner. It was an actual honest to god feral roadrunner, but a roadrunner nonetheless!
-He lives in Idaho among the wilderness and stuff and I envy him for that. 3:
-He is probably one of the most personable artists on here.
-I think he's the only one of us on here who drew a fanart that made it as a guest strip on O&M. This is an accomplishment!

Alrighty! I'll change it! Bowl it is!
It will be edited, though it won't be missed.
This rhyming I am really enjoying,
Though, let me know if it gets annoying. :lol:
