Animation

I've been writing a song for the start titles of an animated cartoon. Complicated, because it's only forty seconds, and the message (specific words they want to use) is fixed, and because, at the start they only requested a seven-footed line, to match the French, and my musician put stressed syllables at the end of every line (which, seeing they wanted "future" and "present" as accented terms, which doesn't make my job any easier) Still, I'm not one to back down from a challenge; and a first (demo) version has been sung; we'll see how the Taiwanese like it (the version in Mandarin is somebody else's problem )
You'd think that with that going on my muse would be happy to take a rest from rhyme. wouldn't you? But, as some have noticed, l'appetit vient en mangeant, and I exude verse in all directions.

Odd that; I hope it doesn't trigger another bout of limericitus.
