_____________________________________________________________________________ ---------------------------- I Bleed for This? ------------------------------ ------04.06.94-----------------------------------------------------#012------ The Poetboy Chronicles by Snarfblat This is the first installment in The Poetboy Chronicles. There will be many more. We write about Poetboy because he is an easy target, and anyone who names himself Poetboy deserves to be tormented. If you don't believe that this is a true story, look in the channel #moon on irc. Poetboy has been known to use different nicks, but he is always moses@world.std.com. Poetboy and the Big Shoe ------------------------ One day, Poetboy pretended to be sick. He wanted to stay home from school and snoop in the attic where his parents told him never to go. After he was sure they had gone to work in the mines, he snuck up to the attic and started to open boxes. Most of them were empty, except for one. It was the biggest box of all, and inside it Poetboy found the biggest shoe he had ever seen. "What could I do with this shoe? I wonder what I should do." rhymed Poetboy. First he tried to wear the shoe, but it was much too big. Then he poured milk into it and tried to make cereal. But no matter how much milk he put in it, it didn't fill up. He put his dog in, and his dog disappeared. Then he put his cat in. Finally he decided to go in. He went in and fell asleep for a long time. When he woke up his dog and cat raped him and poured milk all over him. Then they ate him. They offered him the dignity of killing himself but he started to write a poem about it so they just shot him. ============================================================================== IBFT is: Farnon's cat - kiesa%tacobel@merk.com Home Board: (508)371-9849 Snarf's cat - clawdia%tacobel@merk.com Pulsating Temple of Stan ftp:141.214.4.135:/docs/ibft ---><--- gopher:ftp.etext.org:/Zines/IBFT mailing list: bleed-request@unix.amherst.edu ==============================================================================
