Hey, gang, let's write a flat!

rhuBased on an idea in a conversation with ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
tmcay, I thought it might be fun to try a "round-robin" flat.
Here's how it'll work. I'll choose the poetic form and write the first line. If you want to participate, simply copy the flat-in-progress plus your own line into a comment on the previous one. Minor edits to previous lines are ok if they correct scansion or make a better rhyme possible. If you think you can do better than something already posted, feel free to split the tree.
What's the base? What's the kind of flat? The person writing the last line gets to choose, although as in "Ghost", you should make sure that you can provide a legitimate base for the fragment you pose.
If we like the end result, we might decide to send it in to the Enigma.
So, here goes. I choose six lines of iambic tetrameter, with cuewords in lines 3 and 6 (not necessarily at the end of the line). Rhyme scheme is either ABCABC or AABCCB -- the person writing the second line can choose.
TBD (TBD)
When winter's here, what I like best

Though some may point and others stare,
While ambling so I just don't care;
TWO clothes get in the way of sun.
