"Now is the discount on our winter tents"

In Xanadu did Kubla Khan
A poetic pleasure dome decree,
He would devote his life to slam,
Indeed, he would a slammer be !

Paper and quill, each in one hand,
He would sit, rather than stand
At his desk in the drawing room,
The one that was pannelled with wood.
And there he would sit, write and read,
Stopping only to drink some mead.

... Or should that be in the bad poetry thread?

Stop all the clocks, cut off the telephone,
and someone shut that bleeping dog up
I'm trying to get some sleep.

He was my north, my south, my east and west,
With orienteering, how could I get some rest?

302? Yes.

Now is the winter of our discombobulation.

I'm gonna make him an offer he can't accept.
E.T. Tweet home.
Show me the honey!
There's no place like Nome.

I wandered lonely as a cloud! do clouds smell

Half a league, half a league, half a league
yes we get that can you move on please

Peggy's bloomers got married one fine day.

Peggy Sue got marred on Friday

We hold these Truths to be self-evident, that all Men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of foxes.

MACBETH: Is that a pair of bloomers I see before me?

When shall we three picnic again, in thunder, lightning, or in rain?

Shall I compare the to a pair of red bloomers?

Brevity,
that is the art of expressing an apt observation in as few words as will both expound the nub or core of the information required to elucidate the subject of the offering in as elegant and yet concise a manner concordant with the style of the particular era,
is the soul of wit
