Summary

The webpage presents a collaborative and playful limerick exchange between two friends, Raine Lore and Jaylee Reign, on the theme of pigs, humorously debating their virtues and culinary uses, and culminating in a call for unity and a nod to Tim Minchin's philosophy on dietary choices.

Abstract

The website content showcases a creative dialogue between Raine Lore and Jaylee Reign, titled "POETRY-IN-MOTION — A COLLABORATIVE LIMERICK," with the central piece named "Placing Pigs on Pedestals." This poetic conversation humorously explores the contrasting views on pigs, ranging from angelic to edible. The authors engage in a witty banter about the nature of pigs, their place in cuisine, and the merits of different dietary preferences. The limericks are interspersed with personal reflections, playful jabs, and a shared history of friendship. The piece is enriched with multimedia elements, including photographs and a YouTube video, and concludes with a whimsical invitation to set aside differences and enjoy a metaphorical salad together, inspired by Tim Minchin's lyrics. The collaboration is part of their new joint publication, "Poetry ’n’ Motion, R-Vs-R," and is inspired by a prompt from Carolyn Hastings at Paper Poetry.

Placing Pigs on Pedestals

The plight of old Phoenix

Attention devotees of swine, Especially the pink flying kind. You think they are special, Like angels — celestial, But I like them soaking in brine!

No shame! — Angel piggie, I’m here, I’ll save you — no tears will you fear. Stars flame as my witness, Raine’s sow-brine, her sickness, Turned wine, she’s forgiven, let’s cheer!

My Queen, Jay, you don’t understand, Sow’s motive is quite underhand. The shape of his feet Is evil, not sweet — Ascended from searing hot land!

That’s enough, my Lady of Yore! Stop squealing your blasting ‘grunt’ noise, For five hundred years, Roasting old Phoenee’s ears, Combusting his pending reborn.

You think that the devil wears Prada? You’re wrong, Jaylee, that is nada! He dons no red flesh, Prefers white the best, That porker belongs in my larder!

Your stomach’s been grumbling a passion for Vegan since mead was in fashion. Come back to the land, Where tin-spam is banned, And honey’s a brew of compassion.

Meat in a tin — dear Yang to my Yin, Will always be viewed as a sin! Why don’t you come over, Eat tofu in clover — In no time at all, I’ll be thin!

His cuddles and oink spark divine Denial on your plate as you dine, His little snout kisses, You wipe love with tissues, While I toss a salad, you’se whine!

Truth is, we’ve been friends for years! Adelaide 2017 — Photo property of Raine Lore.

Wine and friends are a great blend! — Ernest Hemingway

Oh my, Raine, will you stop trying to pull a porker of a slider with your photo? Indeed, this is true of this Reign verses Raine duo! We have been the greatest of friends spinning a distant yarn together now, for what seems like forever and decided, Wow! Wouldn’t it be fun to start up a new joint?…[peace out, bra!]… okaay… publication that is!

Note from Jaylee to Raine...
Thank you Raine, for uniting with me to celebrate all things poetry in motion! I’ve had so much fun playing and catching up with you! Your joint is truly smokin' with all your creative, fun gadgetry! 
May I leave you & all of our fellow creatives with one final tasty morsel of peaceful offerings from a great songwriter, comedian, composer, all the way from the land down under!
Honest to goodness, everything’s fine, Raine! It’s just that while  you continue to content-create, I’ll need a little more time, beautiful lady, to finish your wine… then I’ll be back! I promise!...

We don’t eat pigs You don’t eat pigs It seems it’s been that way forever So if you don’t eat pigs And we don’t eat pigs Why not, not eat pigs together?ღ — Tim Minchin

Yes, Tim! Couldn’t agree more! Chink chink!🥂 Together, let’s call that salad a wrap shall we?¯\_(ツ)_/¯
