Now, it's just a right lovely evenin', wouldn't you find yourself sayin'?
One've them where somewhere round about the place there's some fool of a poet tryin' to write up the evenin' in iambic pentameter, or maybe as a sestina. Or a sestina in iambic pentameter, it surely wouldn't surprise me none at all.
Meanwhile, while them poets get into a fight over rhyme schemes, over here by the fire there's that fool of a fellow Rabbit, sprawled 'cross one've them couches, with wood an' knife an' cigarette in hand.
How he manages to balance all three without droppin' somethin', stabbin' hisself in the foot, or settin' his own hair on fire, reckon I couldn't tell you even if he managed to explain it t'me.

"Did I say anythin' about gettin' drunk, kid?"
He smiles, a little.
"You ain't happy like this, near's I can tell, but you ain't gonna be any happier fallin' out've your chair from too much t'drink, an' I don' reckon that's what I'm aimin' for anyroad."
