my favorite poem

My favorite poem is called "True Story" and this is how goes,


This morning i jumped on my horse


And went out for a ride,


And some wild outlaws chased me


And they shot me in the side.


So i crawled into a wildcats's cave


To find a place to hide,


But some pirates found me sleeping there,


And soon they had me tied


To a pole and built a fire


Under me-I almost cried


Till a mermaid came and cut me loose


And begged to be my bride,


So i said i'll come back Wendnesday


But i must admit i lied.


Then i ran into a jungle swamp


But i forgot my guide


And i stepped into some quicksand,


And no matted how hard i tried


I couldent get out, until i met


A water snake named Clyed,


Who pulled me to some cannibals


Who planned to have me fried.


But an eagle swooped me up


And throu the air we flied,


But he dropped me in a boiling lake


A thousand miles wide.


And you'll never guess what i did then-


I DIED


-By Shel Silverstein


One reson why i like this poem is because it has alot of really random things that he does in it and the at the end , he just all of a sudden dies.Another reson is because its


really funny and it is very creative. i also thought about if hes ded, then how is he telling this story. Comment on this blog if you think you know the answer!
