A/N: Ok, everyone. Finally, I'm writing another Labyrinth fic. Normally I don't just sit down and write without a good idea, or lots of planning, but certain people (cough*Redaura*cough) have been incessantly goading me to post something. (Thank you, Redaura, if it weren't for your prodding I probably wouldn't post anything for at least two more weeks!)
Disclaimer: I don't own the Labyrinth, oh what a surprise. It belongs to Jim Henson, and Labyrinth Enterprise. (If my rhyming bothers you, you might want to stop reading right now.)

~Jareth's Bad Day~
In the Labyrinth, a realm so far away,
Jareth was having a terrible day.
He woke up to find Krazy Glue in his hair,
And he didn't have any clean underwear.
At the laundry goblins, he prepared to shout,
But he couldn't find one of them about.
He decided to try and wash some himself,
But the laundry soap wasn't on its usual shelf.
He stormed back up to his goblin king room,
Where hundreds of goblins would soon meet their doom.
When the sight met his eyes, oh, how it hurt!
They destroyed his David Bowie concert t-shirt!
He flung them from his room, in terrible rage,
Suspending a few over the bog, in a cage.
Jareth was not having a good day
(Still wearing his Batman p.j.'s, by the way.)
He found a leopard-print thong in the back of his drawer,
And he put it on...oh the horror!
Anyway, by the time he was thoroughly dressed,
He decided to lie down and take a rest.
And those goblins, they're such a hoot!
They put bog juice in Jareth's left boot!
So eventually, when the goblin king awoke
The goblins were laughing...what was the joke?
He put on his boots, recognizing the smell,
Then shot the goblins with a look that could freeze hell.
The goblins all fled toward the Goblin City,
They were too fast for Jareth--oh, what a pity.
So he went to the kitchen for something to munch,
But couldn't find anything good for lunch.
And so he grabbed at the first thing in reach,
You know what it was. Yes, a magic peach.
Now Jareth's immune to things of that sort,
But he got a bad headache, to make a long story short.
So Jareth went upstairs to lay on his bed,
And rest his royal Goblin King head.
Wallowing in self-pity for his awful day,
He put on David Bowie CD to play.
Lying in his bed, he started to cry,
And at that very moment, Sarah dropped by.
Knowing nothing of Jareth's awful day,
She exclaimed with disgust, "You must be gay!"
Just the thought of Jareth made Sarah shiver,
So Jareth gave up, and cried a river.
Lying in his room, still feeling quite sour,
He realized it was almost the thirteenth hour!
He went to the computer, his eyes still wet,
And logged on to fanfiction.net.
He almost screamed in terror and fright,
"Jareth's Bad Day" was on that horrid website!
Adverse daily happenings, he had had plenty,
Without the input of CrystalDreamer620.
"CrystalDreamer," he muttered, "You take that back!"
"You're on fanfiction, and this is fan-fact!"
He then logged off, and slunk away.
This was not one of Jareth's more favorable days.

Well, that was...fun. Did anyone notice the part of the movie when Hoggle says "If you so much as put a foot in the BOES, you'll smell bad for the rest of your life"? That's what I was going for with the whole boot thing.
Anyway, as always, please review because it makes me happy, and gives me confidence to post more stuff. All flamers will be used to light the thirteen candles in my Labyrinth shrine. (*_*)
