Alexander Pope wrote this after a young man cut off a lock from a young lady's hair as a joke. Her family was terribly offended and wanted no further contact with the young man's family. Pope used the poem as a way to show the young lady's family that they were, perhaps, taking things a bit too far. As you read this, look for elements that are common to epic poems, such as The Odyssey and The Iliad, as well as elements of humor. This is a "mock-heroic", which means the writer is taking a small subject (such as a lock of hair) and elevating it to mythic proportions. Enjoy! http://eserver.org/poetry/rape-of-the-lock.html

Ode to the Fling
By Jensen Near
Sing to me muse
Of the good times we've had
Give me the Mem'ries
All good and not bad
Beginning on Wednesday
We all unite
Great songs to sing
And Poems to cite
The Hinrichs Appear
We play a name game
As Carl, Josh, Erik
All grow in their fame
And then we go out
And gladly endure
A walk 'round the grounds
Enjoying the tour
Now comes the first poem
"The Rape of the Lock"
Though not acted out
It's done well by talk
Then comes the first Luncheon
The Actors work too
Under the tree's
Slightly hidden from view
Then we are visited
By Caesar Himself
Alivened by Shakespeare
Picked up off the shelf
Then comes the Dance practice
At the end of the Day
As we all go dancing
And musicians play
Thursday dawns bright
And we start to sing
As Dies and Irae
In our ears do ring
Mr. H does lecture
On music and more
A thing that gives joy
To rich and to poor
Next to much import
Some Plato was read
On whether it's art or knack
Or maybe it's dead
Next is the potluck
Where we all indulge
And chow down some food
Til' Stomachs do bulge
At Two came the play guides
To explain away fear
And the plebians rise
to their feet and do cheer
We finish the reading
of a play yet unfinished
Octavius rise
and Caesar diminish
Julius Caesar
Performed at Old Globe
Says Caesar "E tu?"
As blood stains his robe
When Caesar does end
We all say "Adieu"
And go home to bed
'Til morning is new
Softball brings smiles
to all of our faces
As Friday does dawn
and run all the bases
Lunch once more passes
With much merry smiles
as we all struggle
food on plates to pile
It's a free afternoon
And all have a good time
Sleeping or playing
Restfully Sublime
Late afternoon comes
and we go here and there
As all of the ladies
Do style their hair
And when all are dressed up
They converge on hall
decked out all to dance
And enjoy the ball
The ball night quick passes
with much gaiety
And for one more hour
All do beg and plead
But alas it's not so
We retire at Ten
But maybe next year
we'll get four hours then
On Saturday Morn
A debate doth ensue
And as we all know
Knack is false and art true
Last lunch of the fling
We consume with great zeal
We line up again
Appetites to reveal
A music recital
Brings out talent much
And poems are done
and songs sung and such
Then is Second Shepherd's
Performed with great skill
Hilarity ensues
from Mak and from Gill
Measure for Measure
Follows the suit
As for poor Isabelle
The crowd all does root
The night comes on slowly
And we all depart
Divided by land
But united in heart
Great heroes of old
Are hard pressed to say
They had better fun
Way back in their day
O fling, return again
And bring us good times
And muse I do thank thee
For all of these rhymes
