Teaching Beetles To Swim (Free verse) by Bobjim

Taught the old cockroach to dance. Folk said I hadn't a chance. But hours with a stick, For once did the trick, And soon I will open a ranch. Taught the old bedbugs to sing. Folk said it's not the real thing. But experts agree, That it's them sing (not me), And it's done without aid of a string. Taught the old deathwatch to jive. Folk said that can't be alive. It's all an illusion. Please stop this confusion. Wait still for the van to arrive. At last I taught beetles to swim. Through methods perplexing and grim. I sat up all night, Till they all got it right, And some grew quite handsome and slim. Beautiful things, beetles.

Ok, the Rankin guy isn't even that wonderful to begin with, why would anyone copy his crap? Isn't there some sort of person that, oh, you know, administrates this site or something, that should have the power to say, delete this user?! What's going on here?!
