IN DAYS OF OLD . . .

[indianasmith]

OK, gang, let's have a poetry contest!  Here's the rules:
Each poem must start with the phrase "In days of old when men were bold . . ."
And follow the rhythm and meter of these examples:

"In days of old when men were bold
and toilets not invented,
Men dropped their load beside the road
And walked away contented."

"In days of old when men were bold
and women even wilder,
Men locked their spouses in their houses
Lest someone else defile her!"

And here's one more:

"In days of old when men were bold
and castles rather chilly,
Men wrapped in furs with mangy curs
and drank till they were silly."

OK, your turn!

In days of old when men were bold,
And cruel demons prowled the night,
Folk quaked in fear and gulped warm beer,
Wishing Buffy would come fight.

[Trevor]

In days of old, there was a guy from Pretoria
Who got into trouble with a lawyer
The sight of his undies laid bare
Sent his neighbors into despair
And created panic and disorder

"In days of old when men were bold
And sheep were pretty nervous,
A flock'll double as a brothel
So shepherds could be serviced!"   

[ER]

In days of old when men were bold
And stirrups uninvented,
Horses stumbled, groins were pummeled,
And codpieces often dented.

[indianasmith]

In days of old, when men were bold,
and condoms not invented,
Men wrapped their c*cks inside their socks
Thus babies were prevented!

[ER]

Men wrapped their c*cks inside their socks

Well gosh, who knew the Red Hot Chili Peppers were historical reenactors?

"In days of old when men were bold,
And plague came in through rats,
The best results
Were catapults
loaded with hungry cats!"
