On Tender Hooks
- by Brian BilstonLet me cut to the cheese:
every time you open your mouth,
I’m on tender hooks.You charge at the English language
like a bowl in a china shop.
Please nip it in the butt.On the spurt of the moment,
the phrases tumble out.
It’s time you gave up the goat.Curve your enthusiasm.
Don’t give them free range.
The chickens will come home to roast.Now you are in high dungeon.
You think me a damp squid:
on your phrases I shouldn’t impose.But they spread like wildflowers
in a doggy-dog world,
and your spear of influence grows.Posted: 2025 Apr 20

Great video! I didn’t know there were such talented dogs employed at baseball games, but am not surprised. And coincidentally, I caught this video on the news just yesterday! https://katu.com/news/offbeat/bat-dog-brings-water-to-umpire-at-minor-league-baseball-game. Looks like they love their work!
Marilyn – LOL – Thanks for the link. They do indeed seem to be eternally enthusiastic.
Now, that’s a hoot! No…more to the point, a woof, or maybe an arf!

Tom- 🙂
Oh — I thought he was going to bat a ball with the bat,
but then he/she (?) wouldn’t be called a “bat dog”, but a “bitch hitter”. Groan.
Barbara – Groan indeed.
