My favorite GL couplet without question is:
"Then in a blaze of tangled hooves,
He gallops off across the dusty plain,"
Th imagery of the first line is nothing short of brilliant. Fire (smoke?) and tangled hooves. Are the tangled hooves causing the fire (smoke?)? The 'screwed upness' of the tangled hooves and the last line seem to me the essence of DQ.
There are more couplets I love but I am pressed for time. Wonderful idea Rez.
