This week's theme for [livejournal.com profile] b7friday was "lost, stolen or strayed". I'm afraid I couldn't get this out of my head, so what we have here is a full-blown parody of a poem which contains the words "lost or stolen or strayed". Do you remember this one?

Disobedience

(with apologies to A.A. Milne)

Kerr Kerr
Avon the Hacker
Computer geek times three
Took great
Care of his Rebel,
Though he was INT
Kerr Kerr
Said to his Rebel,
"Rebel," he said, said he;
"You must never go run near the planet Star One
If you don't go run with me."

Roj Blake
Kerr Avon's Rebel
Put on a golden gun
Roj Blake
Kerr Avon's Rebel
Went to the planet Star One
Roj Blake
Kerr Avon's Rebel
Said to himself, said he:
"I can just go run near the planet Star One
And be back in time for tea."

Orac
Put up a notice,
"LOST or STOLEN or STRAYED!
ROJ BLAKE
KERR AVON'S REBEL
SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN MISLAID.
LAST SEEN
WANDERING VAGUELY:
QUITE OF HIS OWN ACCORD
HE TRIED TO GO RUN NEAR THE PLANET STAR ONE --
FORTY CREDITS REWARD!"

But nobody did convince
Orac

Care of his Rebel,
Though he was INT

I do know it. James James something something Willoughby George Dupree. It's a good parody.
