"don't know if I'll make it / but watch how good I'll fake it"
Regarding this post, one thing I left out is how Tomonori's abilities as a poet remind me a lot of Robert Herrick.
Regarding this poem, this just goes to show that Wordsworth was the sort of tone-deaf poet who could write lines like "Happy, happy Liver" and not expect us to think of the internal organ. (Note that the skylark addressed is apparently a different one from this memorable bit. Wordsworth seems to have dredged much metaphoric inspiration from singing in the sky.)
Regarding Yotsuba&! chapter 77, I note that Azuma has finally set up the necessary preconditions for a chapter titled "Yotsuba & the Really Big Shoelace Knot." Just sayin'.
