Horace - As Happy As A Pig In Sh**e


Horace is happy as a pig in sh**e in Dead Beat's tool shed. He bursts out occasionally spouting off some nonsense or other then disappears back in. I throw him a handful of Hudson's leftovers. He nearly bites my hand off.

This morning he flings open the back door and shouts in:

"Happy is Fannius, with immortals classed,
His bust and bookcase canonized at last,
While, as for me, none reads the things I write.
Loath as I am in public to recite,
Knowing that satire finds small favour, since
Most men want whipping, and who want it, wince."

"How do you like your eggs?" I shout after him as he scurries away.

Very much enjoyed the time I spent reading and looking around your site...as a poet myself, I found it a most rewarding look. Thank you...
