a conversational poem with Jar Jar.
"Yousah, How do you like my bow?"
Jar Jar asks of me -
I don't know what to think
Except that it's quite silly.

"It's fine" I say,
Unsure of an honest reply.
That's when he closed his eyes
And quietly began to sigh.

"Something's wrongo, here
I know not what" -
That he was aware
Made the question cut.

I tried to put Jar Jar at ease,
That everything's alright;
But my hesitation in assuring
Exaggerated his plight.

I was about to give up the farce,
And finally come clean;
But I opened my eyes
To find it a weird dream.

That will teach me to binge
Star Wars' Phantom Menace;
On an evening where drink
is quite plenus*


 


*meaning full or satisfying.
