Fair Snape Fell, Release Your Inner Chaucer Options

[zymurgy]

Because Zymurgy found out there's a place called Fair Snape Fell, and because Cat pointed out that that sounded like the title of a ballad, it is now YOUR job to write it!

You have until May 31st at midnight to create a poem about Fair Snape and how he fell. It can be in any style as long as it tells a story.

For inspiration, I offer:

Fair Snape fell upon the hill,
And broke his handsome nose,
And now fair Snape's no longer fair,
As its crooked towards his toes.

I'm sure you can all do MUCH better than that, so consider yourselves challenged!

The Winner receives accolades and laurels and a special spiffy graphic for siggy purposes.

The Tragedy of Fair Snape
(This goes to the tune of some song from a movie... sorta)


Fair Snape was a quiet and good little lad.
But on one rare occasion,
When he was beaten by persuasion,
He fell into the Dark Arts,
Which was sad.

Oh, Fair Snape fell,
From all that was well.
On such tragedies our minds must not dwell.
He fell! He fell! Poor Snape fell!
All because of one little spell…


Should the fair one be saved,
From thing that enslaved
Or should it go unnoticed;
Unwatched?
Is his mind simply, only botched?

Oh, Fair Snape fell,
From all that was well.
On such tragedies our minds must not dwell.
He fell! He fell! Oh, Poor Snape fell!
All because of one little spell…
