I wasn't going to do this, but...

[desperance]

On the twelfth day of Christmas, desperance sent to me...

Twelve pre-raphaelites drumming

Eleven robots reading

Ten cats a-walking

Nine androids publishing

Eight magpies eating

Seven peppers a-writing

Six dragons a-cooking

Five ro-o-o-obert graves

Four tom waits

Three john barnes

Two short stories

...and a horror in an astronomy.

I just tried it a few minutes ago, and I don't think I'm going to post it. I don't have any "interests" listed, so it used names from my friends list (mutual or not).

There were nine desperances. And they were dancing.

Stately and together, I hope? One of those formal dances, which make elegant patterns - only slightly out of true, on account of an odd number dancing. I like that.

But it is wise not to post things that use other people's names. I lost a friend that way.
