DucKon and Klingon Love Poetry

[awfulhorrid]

Yeah, yeah, I know DucKon was almost a month ago, but I've been busy!

I've been going to DucKon for a long time and I've attended the Klingon Love Poetry with Heavy Objects at least a few times over the years, but I've so far been able to avoid participating. This year I was finally forced convinced to join in on the fun. For those unfamiliar with the concept behind Klingon Love Poetry, the idea is simple: "He recites; she hurls heavy objects and He Ducks!" (From one of the numerous DucKon program books I've got around here.)

Of course it gets more difficult when you're polyamorous and there are two people throwing 'heavy objects' (stuffed animals) at you. Thank goodness the Klingon Ambassador wouldn't let tarrestrial simply tie me in place or order me to stand still. I at least had the illusion of a chance ... although with both bookwurm and tarrestrial throwing things at me, I got hit quite a lot. Hee.

I'll most likely participate again next year -- hopefully with more of my sweeties there to throw things. Yes, I really am a masochist, apparently. This will also give me a lot more time to write some appropriate poetry. What I recited at the event was written in about five minutes.



First of all, keep in mind that I usually write code for a living. Secondly, no, this won't compile in any way and is in fact complete gibberish as code.

Function MyLoves as Variant (and boy are they variant ...)
Declare arrName as array
Section HereNow
arrName(1) = Fran
arrName(2) = Tara

Section NotHere (but in my heart)
arrName(3) = Melissa
arrName(4) = Tonya
arrName(5) = [redact]
arrName(6) = [redact]

Function output / My love to you all
Each and every one
Near to me, seeing you every day
Or all too far away with never enough time
I love you all more than I could ever tell you

We won a prize for the best "menage-a-what" with bonus points to me for the best flashing while wearing a kilt. Here's to next year!

Hee. That was fun! I was kinda disappointed that they wouldn't let me use my own weapons though...
