hehe, great write! I love seeing poetry that isn't cliche like so much of it is now-a-days. Funny picture too!
-
lol great sentiments. You could be a rapper yet! Spike was extremely good at gobbledy gook and I like the take you have on his poem
-
Very silly. But in a great way. Hooray for onomotopoeia. A worthy parody? Tribute? To the original poem. A witty write that made me smile. Great job

ironic
There seems to be a comparison between hairy savages and the people that are reviewing your work.
I hope that this is not your intenton because that wouldn't be very nice. However, if this is, then I would still applaud the fact that this is very smart. -
good
thought it was something different but there is never anything wrong with gobble glup!!!
-
Cute very cute I like the way you did the rearrangement of wthe words. It was very wll done funny too. I am not sure I like being refered to as a air ap ape though
Thanks for sharing
-

Cute spoof on the original one in your author notes. Like the APing in the title as well - very creative. Hope that we are thought of in much better light though. LOL Sometimes good to poke fun at oneself through something like this - not take oneself too seriously.

Hehehehe cute poem. I think both poems are cute. This is a nice parody. Best of luck to you in all your future writing endeavors.
-
Well, this is interesting to say the least
I can't actually recall I've ever read something like this before during my days on AP, so you're definately unique with this
Thank you for entering the contest, I wish you the best of luck!

Very Clever
I've only been around AP for a few days; but I can identify with the writing/eating and hunch/lunch bit. Thanks so much for sharing your wit. -
this is great! it is really funny it made me laugh! thanks!!
-
You've done quite a job here. Can't have been to easy to find and get words to really fit in. Well done!!
-
Funny
Different but funny I havent ever tried this form of writing but its very unique
-
This was funny. Kind of like a doctor seusss poem. i liked it a lot. If you elaborate and add more lines and such you could probably even turn it into a book. This poem reminds me of my little brother, when he eats... you can hear his every bite and crunch. Hehehehe.
And then it relates to school in a way. I can imagine all the AP students sitting at a lunch table together, all enjoying their school meals, and a bunch of bullies come up and knock them all out.
This is why I enjoyed your poem.
Good job. -
LOL that halarious
I like what you did. Theres no way in hell I'd criticize this. that what we do. crunch munch punch.hahahaha. I allwayys need something like this to lighten the load. are you sure we are not so hairy?
