My 2nd semester of college English our teacher asked us to rewrite the Poem Jabberwocky into a more "understandable" form, or into what we invisioned it to be...
Here's what I wrote, I'm sorta broud of it and figured I'd post it.
Shinny Crystal in the Caves
Did shimmer and Glimmer in the Shade
There they Lay to be saved
But here he slept, for the ill behaved.
"Beware the Dragon my Son,
The Jaws that chomp, the claws that rip.
Beware the Griffins on the run
Breathing Fire from the Lip."
"Take this piece o'steel.
Forged and set it has been.
Go take heed, and watch your cille's heel
For soon the treasures mend."
And in a hurry the Dragon woke,
With a Gnalred grin and a rumbled laugh
Only fire did Dragon Spoke
My armour drenched in lava bath.
Jab, slice, Jab, slice. The blade went true.
The Dragon turned his back.
He was dead and finely slew
As i reached around and filled my pack.
"And I have slain the Elder Dragon"
I bowed and gave the steel
"Pack my goods and load my Wagon"
Oh how proud I was to feel.
Shinny Crystals in the Caves
Did Shimmer and Glimmer in the Shade
There they lay to be saved.
And here and egg, to future guard the ill behaved.
