Scarey Poem

let's start with a line and see where it leads
People like blood so I will make mine bleed

a zombie a chainsaw perhaps some bats
For good measure I'll throw in some black cats

I'm running out of ideas I think
Something is bad, it's a terrible stink

Have you heard the one, about the sparrow
He let loose excrement, on the Pharaoh

Oh what a horror, the bird felt so bad
The Pharoah in anger, yelled out egad

Archers at the ready, shot the bird down
Pharoah bit of wings, wore them on his gown

He fed the birdie to his own black cat
The cat so happy it meowed where it sat

Mummys and bats they make me want to scream
Most of the horrors come from my own dreams

Dancing disjointed, what do I have to loss
Bones I crunched, I removed with dental floss

Let's finish with a flurry, a mad dash
A horrible fungus, a scabby rash

This is really funny especially since its for the Worst Poem contest. Everything ties together with pharaohs and mummies, and this being October you know what I mean; but the last two lines are classics. Thanks Richard.

I'm not sure what qualifies as "bad"... weird, random, just plain non-sense? Well I must say this is beyond random, but yet it's still very entertaining. It's like the imagination of a five-year-old (except with rhyme and you forgot to mention aliens and scooby doo... lol!). Best of luck! I'm surprised Drunk Chicken was so well received... I honestly thought it wasn't that good *shrugs*...
