A Pome a Day for a Year

Welcome welcome the star of the hour,
nay the day! This glorious fellow,
this shocking and caustic and fluffy and loving,
this animal cell collective,
distribute these flyers
(just had xerox make them)
then celebrate the revolution!

We’ve done these forty two times,
so we are pretty adept at this whole
being a being kind of thing,
and my guy, you did it,
you hit the big time
(though I am talking about the proper big,
not the gaudy)
and I have all the maddest respect and love,
and admiration.

A constant presence, a constant fence,
a pole in the mountain of strength,
a flag in the course of friendship,
we are not letting up here,
no this shining light is guidance
of the human kind, placing a pathway
never before realised in front
of a lost, confused, child,
who journeyed down it
and found peace.
