Mythical Quest
In days of yore, when dragons roamed the world
And maidens were more plentiful than now
A hopeful knight rode forth with flag unfurled
Pursuant to an ill-considered vow
Each mile made his hubris seem less keen
Each furlong made his heroism flag
As each league passed, he wished he'd never seen
His boyfriend making love to some old hag
Oh, how he longed he'd lingered late at lunch
To feast upon hog and bread with mead
On pickled pigsfeet would he often munch
But today was chasing ogres on his steed
He felled one ogre easily with a mighty swing of his sword
It grew steadily easier, but soon he was bored
He had a strong feeling of being ignored
So he rode off to find a maiden and pretty soon he scored
