So. I'm working on a long HP fic. (In addition to the Phantom and FFX ones...whatever). But I don't want to start posting it until I have more done. So...here's a poem. If you haven't read it by now, I just don't know. But I'll put it up anyway.
The Ballad of Larry
Larry tried to throw himself
Into the briney sea;
For Larry was a lemming,
And it was his destiny,
But when he threw his tiny frame
O’er the cliff that day,
He caught upon a hanging branch;
Himself he could not slay,
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
Then poison was his next resort
Putting Arsenic in his food,
But another lemming ate it up,
And died there as she chewed,
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
For his next attempt, Larry
Aimed to be struck by a car;
But all the drivers were so careful,
He escaped without even a scar,
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
Then Larry thought hanging himself,
Might yield the results he desired;
But he lacked thumbs to tie the noose,
So the idea was not inspired,
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
Then Larry tried to use a gun,
Strictly for his morbid reason;
But the little lemming lacked a license,
And he found he was not in season,
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
Larry tried a different method
An accordion he did play,
But his family loved to polka,
For his death they would not pay.
Larry the lemming couldn’t die
No matter how hard he would try
Finally Larry abandoned his quest,
And stopped on the street for a chat,
Then a piano fell from above him,
And squashed poor Larry flat.
There.
