Change Ling (One line at a time, you start. Strict rhyme and meter only)

[Leanne]

Shut up, I've been writing sonnets.

"It's fish for tea again?" you say,
"I'd sooner have a beef entrée."
In finger form or battered strips,
finned food will not go straight to hips
boeuf,au contra, has horse mixed in
that pie is 10 to 1 to win.

and it wasn't half a foot, it was a whole foot.
