Oh freddled gruntbuggly thy micturations are to me
As plurdled gabbleblotchits on a lurgid bee.
Groop I implore thee, my foonting turlingdromes.
And hooptiously drangle me with crinkly bindlewurdles,
Or I will rend thee in the gobberwarts with my blurglecruncheon, see if I don't!

Prostetnic Vogon Jeltz

[Gordon C. Landis]

Ah, Vogon poetry . . .

Years and years ago, I was at a Science Fiction convention.  They had a Vogon Haiku contest.  I entered.  I won.

Plunging the blade deep,
twisting, putrescent slime spurts:
I thank you, mother.

[Shawn De Arment]

Since no one has posted any Sappho...

Tonight I've watched the moon and
then the Pleiades go down
The night is now half-gone;
youth goes;
I am in bed alone
