Hi, and welcome to the first, but hopefully not only, installment of the Portal Poem Parody Project! Pretty much the only thing I can write with any conviction are parodies, and I do have a knack with rhymes, so here ya go: various famous poems changed to include Portal references and directly inspired by the various scribbled poems in the "secret rooms" in the game.
Stopping By A Cube On A Shaking Platform
Whose Cube this is I think I know
Her house is buried deep below
She will not see me stopping here
To watch the cube bask in the glow.
My portal gun must think it queer
To be not firing portals here
Between these walls I see no cake
The darkest shadows always leer.
The insane AI screams out a crow
It seems like it might overload
The only other sound's the beep
Of a turret gun to explode.
The Weighted Companion Cube can speak
But I have programs to delete
And portals to fire before I sleep
And portals to fire before I sleep.
Hmm. For some reason, I can't separate the stanzas of the poem. Any help on this would be appreciated, in addition to the normal R/R review process. Thanks!
