Unnecessarily long linguistics rant

[tahnan]

I mentioned that I use my blog cqs
To post about my dissertation; well,
I also use it when I've got a thought
About linguistics, CQ-ish or not.

I've posted something there tonight: a long
And irritated rant about a book
(In Other Words, by Christopher J. Moore).
I think that blog's a better place than here
For long linguistic ranting. All the same,
Although I do not plan to post it here
(Not just because I'm not rewriting it
To use blank verse), I do suggest you go
And read it, because after all I took
The time to write it; put it to good use.
