Since we've been putting so much effort into developing our skills as Bad Poets, I think it's time we ratchet it up (or down) a notch.

Here's my challenge. Take a bad joke-- I mean, seriously bad, possibly the worst you've ever heard -- and render it into bad verse. Puns are not necessary, but will certainly add to your Badness Points.

OK, here goes...

Once upon a Time on a South Sea Island...

Two cannibals were feeling fine
as they prepared to make merry,
for that evening they planned to dine
on a succulent missionary.

And when the meal had been prepared
and they were ready to eat,
"I'll start at the head," the first declared,
"and you begin at the feet.

"Isn't this great?" the first one sighed,
as he tucked into the head.
"I'm having a ball!" the other replied.
"You cheated!" the first one said.
