Description
From Happy Freak Show #5Here's something I'm particularly proud of. A long time ago, I decided I'd do humorous adaptations of three classic poems, a la early Mad.

That's funny! Have you read the book "ShrinkLits"? It has funny poems that summarize famous literary works. Here's the poem for "The Raven":
Raven lurches
In, perches
Over door.
