Oh pretty peacock, br why perch you thus, br so haggard and so woebegone, br upon the wooden rail? br br Is it that recent hail br has bombarded your skinny body br and left you primping your wet feathers br with a cold beak? br br Or is it perhaps br that your bonnie mate (too late) br has left to nest elsewhere br after last month's lusty cacophony. br br I'd like to invite you into my warm house.
