I found a doper tired and weary.  
‘Why you posting now’, I cried.  
‘It’s an addiction’ the doper sighed.  
‘Cecil expects daily posts’ he said,  
‘and I won’t let him down until I’m dead’.

Look after the pennies…

Once upon a midnight dreary  
I was heartbroke, sad and teary.  
Came a raven to my door  
straight from Rigby (Eleanor).  
Soon his vapors made me cough.  
Then the raven: “Bugger off!”  
[well, it scans well]

Look before you . . .
