"I sing of the Wrath of Achilles
Which gave the Achaeans the Willies.
Help me tell, O my Muse
Of how Troy got the Goose,
And of Quarrels that really were Dillies!"

Sorry, couldn't resist. But it's not mine. It was written by either or both Poul Anderson and Gordon Dickson in one of their "Hoka" collaborations.

Good one Fred. How about this one--

There once was a king, name of Priam

Who battled the Greeks ad nauseum

He ended the wars

By accepting a horse

That shat Greeks on the streets of Ilium.

from The Lost Limericks of James Joyce"
