Escape from an Ivory Tower

   Teleological
      hypotheses bore me

   Tautological phraseology
      snores me

   A beer and a burger ~
      I adore thee

Oh my gosh, I can't stop laughing at this one. Booze, burgers, and snooze. How can you lose? I kept searching, but didn't find any clues. Uncle Salty did it in the kitchen with a spatula. Case solved!

I really enjoyed this one. You have a clever knack for weaving contrast into comedy. Advanced vocabulary mixed with earthy simplicity. Marking this as a fav!

Yor comment reveals that you either know a lot about poetry that I don't --- or that you know how to shoot the old bull... I prefer to think it shows the former. Thanks, Christopher!
