Re: Burns......

"Ptarmigan" might remember this :

"A fig for those by law protected,
Liberty's a glorious feast.
Courts for cowards were erected,
Churches built to please the priest"

The entire legal establishment, and the churches both wasted in 4 lines.
They don't write them like that any more.

Re: Tarbolton

Liberty is scarce deserved
by those content to scrape and serve
Whose rights another does dictate
like scraps served on anothers plate.

just now,
by Rook.

But here's to the Real Bard,
Robbie Burns. RIP.

I love my flora dearly
I love an lang her nightly
when the moon -lit flits across her tits
...oh Jesus Christ almighty!

Me- just now - Rabbie style.
