I died in peace, but I was scarce
Ajusted to the tomb,
When some dude died for glory that
Preceded a huge 'BOOM'.
He sat up and said "That was fun!"
I think I'll try again!
For evidently, warfare is
A thing that death can't end.
He was plucked out and tossed aside,
His legs were roughly ripped
From his torso, in order that
A friend could be equipped
With pants that matched the color of
The hat upon his head.
And since their colors weren't the same,
His friend then shot him dead.
I thought "That looks so cool! Why should
That dude get all the fun!"
And so I hopped out of my tomb
And went to find a gun.
There you have it. Completely on the spur of the moment, too.

it's a poem that only rhymes when it feels like it.
Act first, then think, then try to find a way to cover up the horrible mess you made.

It has a rhyme scheme of
A
B
C
B
Awesome.
Often, literally, a pillow fight but may include similar situations like volleyball, particularly when wardrobe is skimpy and the action is bouncy.

Has anyone heard this one?
There once was a ninja from Nantucket,
who kept all his swords in a bucket.
He started to spin,
and exclaimed with a grin:
"When I let this thing go you best duck it."
Is it solipsistic in here, or is it just me?

'you best'? I don't think that's proper ninja tongue.

So when's your tank test coming up? I want to make a heavy assault gun and stick a pretty tank name on it.
