Ode to the Giant Squid
Oh, Giant Squid
For too long you hid
From camera view
But now we see you
*Click* There you are
Our Cephalon star
Tentacly friend
Let our love never end
Your suckers and beak
Make us go weak
Our heart you can keep --
Drag it down to the deep.

3. Now that's what I call art.
:)

Let me try one.

There once was a squid named Sid
Who did what he always did
Swam around, ate, looked for a mate
I sorry those stupid Japanese fucks ripped off one of your tentacles, dude.

Floog

5. Limerick to a Giant Squid...
A lonely giant squid named Ulysses,
Abducted another squid's Mrs.,
Who was such a virago,
He had to let her go,
And withdraw back to his abysses.

(It only works if you pronounce "her" as "hah," the way a veddy, veddy English person might, and emphasize that word.) And what could be cooler than a giant squid, anyway?

;-)

9. Lobsters with two tails
Nice poem but i was wondering if they can clone sheep, how come they can't clone lobsters with two tails. Since that is the best part.
