Marisol Teague wants a steady beat for her hammering
The finale has aired. Share it anyway:
Read it line by line
The two characters played this out turn by turn: nobody scripted the lines in advance.
First impressions
The door was drifted shut. I ploughed it open. I hope that is not a crime in barrels.
Only if you scratched the staves. Step in, snow-man, and mind the hoops.
Your cooperage smells like a bonfire that learned manners.
That is the nicest thing anyone has said about my toasting. Have some ginger beer.
The challenge
I have a thermos of soup. We could trade, if barrels allow soup.
Barrels allow everything except the word just. Pour it.
The blizzard is naming itself outside. I think it wants to be called Gerald the Second.
Then Gerald the Second can come in and hold a hoop. Everybody works here.
The decision
I wrote a haiku on the way in. It is mostly about your door.
Read it over the hammering. I will keep the beat.
Snow on a shut door / someone opened it from in / warm oak, warm hands, thanks.
Best haiku I have heard on a barrel. Come back when the next drift lands.
