It's My Blog, And I'll Rhyme If I Want To...
After revealing the sentence for the current challenge I began to wonder, “What was I thinking?!”; then I began to think, “What was I wondering?!”; then I dozed off. When I awoke, and read the passage a few more times, it started to develop a sort of rhythm. Indeed, it seemed a rather obscure rhythm, but it spoke to me.
I chose not to listen and am posting the results, anyway. Hey, I said there were no rules!
She couldn’t place the accent;
It was thick, yet, undefined.
Real throaty in the back, sent
O’er the tongue all misaligned.
Muley sounds that some can’t hear,
Riding bronc-like on the breeze,
Sailing near her one good ear
As the brain extracts its fees.
Comprehension still evades,
The spots have claimed no leopard.
Soon, it’s clear why reason fades…
He’s speaking German Shepherd!
I like where you went with that, mainly I suppose, because I speak a little German Shepherd myself.

Thanks, Montucky. Or, rather, Woof...woof, woof.

I have a good friend who speaks mostly German Shepherd. It's weird, because he is a Pomeranian.
By the way, I've tagged you for the zodiac meme. It is, disappointingly, not the Pinholian zodiac. You aren't boycotting the other, are you?

There is a zodiac besides the Pinholian one? I'll check into it.
Snarl, gingerly, at your friend for me; he'll know what it means.

My friend is hiding under the kitchen table shivering from head to tail tip at the moment.
I think I didn't put quite enough ginger.

I have not started on my entry yet, Pinhole. But I am glad I was yours first, because it is exactly what I was planning to do!

Wow! Exactly?! Word for word?! One of us should be very afraid!
I'm sure glad I posted mine first!

And what fees, pray tell, does the brain extract?
I'm wondering if I might be in the red.

That line was just my cryptic little way of describing how we interpret what we hear...also, I needed a word that rhymed with 'breeze'.
I imagine your debt to knowledge ratio is just fine.

Ich habe einen Hirten von Deutschland vor Jahren gekannt. Er hat ein Haus in Bayern besessen, wo wir Bier die ganze Nacht getrunken haben.
Großes Gedicht*.

LED Home Lighting is without doubt the future of domestic lighting and within only the next couple of years it will replace conventional lighting as swiftly and surely as flat LCD screens replaced bulky CRT tubes. Yet many people still don't understand what home LED lighting is, why it is set to become the new standard or how they might benefit from it.
