The Hobbit Hole XXII - ...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe
http://freeper.the-hobbit-hole.net/ ^

Posted on 06/01/2005 7:12:04 PM PDT by HairOfTheDog

Welcome to The Hobbit Hole!

...Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe

New verse:

Upon the hearth the fire is red,
Beneath the roof there is a bed;
But not yet weary are our feet,
Still round the corner we may meet
A sudden tree or standing stone
That none have seen but we alone.
Tree and flower and leaf and grass,
Let them pass! Let them pass!
Hill and water under sky,
Pass them by! Pass them by!

Still round the corner there may wait
A new road or a secret gate,
And though we pass them by today,
Tomorrow we may come this way
And take the hidden paths that run
Towards the Moon or to the Sun.
Apple, thorn, and nut and sloe,
Let them go! Let them go!
Sand and stone and pool and dell,
Fare you well! Fare you well!

Home is behind, the world ahead,
And there are many paths to tread
Through shadows to the edge of night,
Until the stars are all alight.
Then world behind and home ahead,
We’ll wander back to home and bed.
Mist and twilight, cloud and shade,
Away shall fade! Away shall fade!
Fire and lamp, and meat and bread,
And then to bed! And then to bed!

Yes. I had to make the top three to even get an interview.

I was 11th.

There are worse things than religion wars in the dark places of the internet.

The hair and moustache look like they might eat you if you get too close...

Sigh...

Do you know if you tell people asking for signatures on petitions that they might be witches trying to get your soul by having you sign on specially enchanted paper, you get odd looks?

I bow to your highly developed skills of threat detection. And here I normally only wonder about what they might have written on the page in special invisible ink that will appear when they apply the secret compound. To think the real threat might be much more dangerous voodoo curses.

Hmm... well, they were claiming they were protesting "George W. Bush's cut in library funding" so I wasn't signing it anyway. Normally I just say I don't sign petitions. They deserve more. Like telemarketers. My dad always tells them we're Amish, it puzzles them.

Never thought of voodoo curses, they were awfully cheerful little blond girls.

Stupid Crowne Plaza wants 9 bucks a day to access the wireless in the rooms. So I have to sit down here in the free 'business center' off the lobby. At least the convention center the con is in has free wifi.
