Well, here it is, Aaron, (and I'm glad you specified ''bad poems" ):

The restaurant was ever so swanky,
or, in other words, really quite posh!
My ''Blind Date" was spotty and lanky,
and referred to the dinner as ''nosh".

Oh, why did I come? I felt manky,
and although I thought "Things can't get worse",
he then made a bib with his hanky,
and I silently uttered a curse.

His clothes and his hair were so skanky,
we weren't destined to have a romance.
When he asked, "Do you like hanky-panky?"
I stormed out, yelling "No f***ing chance!"

(Eek, I actually had a blind date not too dissimilar from this when I was about seventeen. )
