OK, so I am doing three stories, and I have no idea which one to continue first. I thought I should take a break and decide later by writing a poem. Since I'm writing about the poem "The Raven" in school, I decided, "Why not do a spoof of it?" So, here's a spoof of it with Count Bleck as the unnamed narrator, Timpani as Lenore, and Birdley as the raven. I hope I do a good job mimicking the style he did.
I was reading a book
In my house, at a nook
Depressed by my lost love, Timpani
I had become lonely
Soon, I heard a rapping
Then some violent tapping
Tapping at my chamber door
I finally went outside to explore
For the tapping, I wanted no more
I stared curiously and carefully
There it was, the Birdley
"What is your name?
For you tapping may make me more insane
My lost love, Timpani
Her voice is as sweet as a bird's melody,"
It sat there, staring as if it wanted more
Quoth the Birdley, "Nevermore,"
It said that one word, as if its life depended on it
I wondered if it even cared about her one bit
"You bird, you stare at me
For you don't care about Timpani
Her hair is like sunlight
So yellow, and so bright
She is so caring and kind like a dove
I need to revive her and revive our love,"
He sat there, faking a loud snore
Quoth the Birdley, "Nevermore!"
Why he said nevermore, I don't know why
Birdley would mostly say, "FYI!"
But now, he doesn't care
So I stare at him with and annoyed stare
"You don't care about our love!
She could be lonely up above
The Overthere is where she may be
But that doesn't make me happy!"
It interrupted its stare with a glance at the door
Quoth the Birdley, "Nevermore!"
As the Birdley might have been curious
He was making me furious
I yelled at him, one last time,
"As you are almost silent as a mime
I hear you say, 'Nevermore'
But her coming back is 'evermore'
So, say evermore
Or else your life may be no more
Because I will make a huge, black void
And you will be very easy to avoid,"
However, instead of saying evermore
He quoth the saying, "Nevermore!"
As I was getting very angry with fury
I ran away with a hurry
I ran inside my warm house
Wishing for my beautiful, future spouse
Then, I suddenly got a plan
Minnons, a secretary, I'll do what I can
For that will make her come in evermore
Then that Birdley will never say, "Nevermore!"
And that's how Super Paper Mario started. All because of Dr. Toadley's pet bird, Birdley. Seriously, what else could I do it with? Mimi as a raven?
I tried to copy the style and part of the story from memory. Still, it may not be perfect, but it's still good. I had to look up rhymes for words. The poem is eight pages long, but I didn't want it to drag on. So, I hope you liked it. Wait, why wouldn't you like it? Quoth the penguin, "Nevermore!"
