*coughs* Yes. Like I mentioned earlier, a parody poem based off Carroll's Jabberwocky. Though I did not try to work in nonsense words, but I did borrow structure, meter, patterns of rhyme, general feel, and so on. Even tried to mirror the style of punctuation, as much as I could. Anyway.

Oh, and yes, it's slashy, because this is me we're talking about here and we are thus not surprised. I mean, c'mon.

Uchiha...-y. >_>
(A Naruto parody of Jabberwocky; With sincerest apologies to Lewis Carroll)


'Twas Monday, and in Konoha
Tsunade bopped him on the head:
Naruto flailed and snarked, "Oi, baa-...!",
She growled and once more said

"Go find the Uchiha, you brat!
You tell that obsessed, brooding twit
I'm sick of his avenger act!
It's all a load of shit!"

He took his vulpine demon seal:
Long time the bastard boy he sought --
So perched in place on a carved stone face,
he stared at where they'd fought.

He scratched, then froze in disbelief,
The Uchiha, with eyes that spun,
Came skulking toward the Hidden Leaf,
And smirking like at fun!

One, two! One, two! Chi red and blue
As Chidori met Rasengan!
But both shots missed, and...what? A kiss?
There was a change of plans.

"So, brat, you find the Uchiha?"
Two young men blushed, but answered not;
Though one grumped "Blah~..." at her "Yee-ha!"
(She'd won the gambling pot.)

'Twas Monday, and in Konoha
The time for payback came to pass;
Naruto snogged his Uchiha,
Then happ'ly kicked his ass.

JABBERWOCKY
Lewis Carroll
(from Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, 1872)

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe:
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

"Beware the Jabberwock, my son!
The jaws that bite, the claws that catch!
Beware the Jubjub bird, and shun
The frumious Bandersnatch!"

He took his vorpal sword in hand:
Long time the manxome foe he sought --
So rested he by the Tumtum tree,
And stood awhile in thought.

And, as in uffish thought he stood,
The Jabberwock, with eyes of flame,
Came whiffling through the tulgey wood,
And burbled as it came!

One, two! One, two! And through and through
The vorpal blade went snicker-snack!
He left it dead, and with its head
He went galumphing back.

"And, has thou slain the Jabberwock?
Come to my arms, my beamish boy!
O frabjous day! Callooh! Callay!'
He chortled in his joy.

`Twas brillig, and the slithy toves
Did gyre and gimble in the wabe;
All mimsy were the borogoves,
And the mome raths outgrabe.

While cute...it involves Naruto befouling my favorite poem ever.

Lewis Carrol wanted me to give you this as he runs screaming from his grave. *Buries Vorpal Blade in eye*

XD

It is cute, though, in all seriousness. =3

Dammit! It's hard to summon Carbunkle when you've got a farging sword in the eye and blood gushing everywhere. Gushing, I tell you!

XD

Seriously, though--your favorite poem ever? ^___^ It's one of the few hanging in my cubicle--laminated with book tape, even (Ozymandias is my favorite, and Jabberwocky, Rime of the Ancient Mariner, Crane's War is Kind, and The Raven round out the top 5 :D )

And apologies for the befouling. ^^; And thanks. *grins*

Ozymandias is awesome. XD

"Behold my works, ye mighty, and despair!"

And I love Alice in Wonderland and Through the Looking Glass.

Even if Carrol was a pedo.
