The Cubby

Fred is Dead

The Barbarian's Beard

Great Poetry, Paraphrased
Three more occurred to me in the shower one morning...

The Unicorn
This poem is written in the style of doggerel fabliaux. (That's a fancy way of saying it's a low-class poem with adult themes. Parental guidance required.)

The Fun Lies
This poem is a villanelle, which uses a structure that requires lines to be repeated in a particular pattern. Again, adult themes.
