Ode to the crispy grub
OH DEAD GRUB
You had so much to live for
So white and grublike
It is such sweet sorrow
To see you leave this earth so soon
One of earth’s greatest tragedies
You were dried up
Like how a corpse would be if a vampire sucked all of the blood out of it
I poked you with a stick
And you were so crispy that you disintegrated
Your last words were so beautiful
You said
Let my death be a metaphor for commercial farming
Because animals also die
Like I’m about to
OH DEAD GRUB
Here is an acrostic poem for you
Good grub
Really good grub
Um that grub was good
Bet yah know that the grub was good
