Parody of Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Raven”

The Pug

Parody of Edgar Allen Poe’s “The Raven”

 Nicholas Adler and Daughter

Once a paw the floor a scratchy, I opened up the now-bare pantry

Over many a scrumptious crunching mouth-full of ill-gotten kibble

While he slobbers, his tongue flapping, his curl-ed tail serenely tapping

Here some creeping beast drools, sneaking, sneaking a nibble

“Tis some furry foe,” I whisper, “who scratched upon Ye Olde Pantry Door”

Quoth the pug, “is there more?”
