Time to Tool Up

Mutley Ravishes

It is with considerable

Regret

That I have to 

Let

My fellow Earthlings 

Know

Of the Intergalactic Federation`s

Not so mo-

-mentous decision

They`ve charged me with

This mission

From this day forwards

Throughout the cosmos

Planet Earth

Will henceforth

Be known as

"Planet Spanner."

    Hahaha. Am I recalling aright in a spanner being some sort of tool, not dissimilar to a wrench, eh? Now we live on the handle or the head? Either way, you're our favorite messenger. We thanks thee much for sharing. Beautifully rendered with excellent poignancy and a delightful sense I can't pin down precisely.

    and why is that ???

    • Mutley Ravishes

      "Spanner": (UK, Ireland, mildly derogatory) A stupid or unintelligent person; one prone to making mistakes, especially in language!
      I`m such a spanner. Oh well, we live and we learn (some of us, anyways).

      • NafisaSB

        just because...you dont need to think you are a spanner, and i am sure lesson has been learnt...
        looking forward to more output from your end - keep it coming

        • Mutley Ravishes
