grov'ling blog of dogg'rel

"What if the author is no bard,
But writes a dogg'rel song;
What if the muse her aid refuse,
While he doth creep along?
The squalling winds may clear the air,
And drive the fog away ;
My grov'ling rhymes may hit the times,
And truth and light convey.
A cobbler works, a quack would ride,
And noddies often dream ;
A clown will walk, a babbler talk,
And I pursue my theme.”

-John Peck

I ran this morning at 9:00am at Tony's with Heidi. Killed me more than it was killing Heidi. Looks like my arm is being twist'd to start at 8:00am not 9:00am.
