The last — and best? — stinky poem?

Here’s a report from Sam Riddleburger…

I don’t do as many Qwikpick Instant Poetry contests as I once did and, frankly, I wonder if the last one I did (at a Catholic School) will be the last.

If so, Qwikpick’s going out on a high note, because this kid named Harrison hit a grand slam of stink with his haiku.

Remember, this is a speed haiku where the kids have only a couple of minutes to write their poem. Most kids don’t get the syllables right. Many don’t even get the number of lines right.
Amazingly, Harrison, while hurriedly crafting this ode to flatulence actually got the 5-7-5. Wow!

Here it is in all it’s glory:

The Worst Thing I Ever Smelled Other Than Poo
by Harrison B.

Right up in my face
In the den of the devil
My dad just ripped one

It’s so terribly wrong, that it makes me think perhaps I really should stop.

  1. It’s so wrong, it’s right.

  2. I want to comment, but I really don’t know what to say.
