I have been interviewed by Lillie.
I will answer the questions in reverse order
so that they appear in the correct order.
Bonus question: What is your favorite word?
◊◊◊
When I was asked for my favourite word
I chose, with no trace of hesitation
What I think is surely the most absurd
Example in all communication.
My word, you see, is quaintly double edged
And most slyly deceptive from the start;
Its values are perverse and coyly hedged.
It firstly means divide or split apart.
Straight forward enough, separate and lift.
Visions come of satin, silk and leather.
But calm your busom and don’t be so swift:
Its second meaning is to stick together.
To cut or to join, it’s hard to believe
But my favourite word, of course, is ‘cleave’.
