Very Bad Poetry

Welcome to the last refuge for the world's worst poetry.

It's difficult to understand how, in this age of information, poems that merely miss the mark can be tossed into the cold world to fend for themselves, only to whither and be forgotten.

Please help us to help them to help us.

Alouicious McNamera

faith shakes mountains and mountains shake in their (respective boots)
Kilimangiro's boots are unlaced
McKinley remarks on this
Babyshambles remarks that their song does not tie footwear or inspire faith
The Grand Canyon isn't wearing shoes and feels left out
The bluffs tell it to shut up
The Canyon calls the bluffs' bluff
And manifests itself as an Ironcald warship during the Civil War
Abraham Lincoln commands the Union forces to ride The Grand Canyon
Up a river which he can't remember the name of off-hand
This confuses the generals and lesser commanders
But then Commander Cody steps in and makes a remark about "Hot Rod Lincoln"
This confuses Honest Abe
And his brigade
Who are drinking lemonade
In the shade
During a parade
In the general vicinity of the Everglades
And then the Confederacy loses but never really comes to terms with it.
