tripping balls with billy shakespeare

i tell you

it was a comedy of errors

when i tripped balls with billy shakespeare

we picked up a henry from macbeth

split it measure for measure

at first we agreed

it was much ado about nothing

we sat and laughed at a dog for a while

much like the merry wives of Windsor

who joined us for a quick smoke

but then

a tempest reared its ugly head

cymbalines crashed

shakespeare leared

by the twelth night

we were truly sonnet

deep in a midsummer nights dream

we stumbled through a hamlet

and came upon an inn

but were swiftly barred

for bad behaviour

before coming to rest

 

alls well that ends well

he said

cheers both, just a bit of fun inspired by something called an anti-slam, where people stand up and read the worst poem (cheesy, punny etc) they can.

im reading it monday night so i shall report on how it goes!

if anyone wants proof of how wonderful anti-slams are, go to the link below and enjoy.

Stu - this is like the Bard on acid. Not my favourite of your pieces, as I found it a bit gimmicky, but I can still appreciate the skill involved. Cheers.
