Right, you have had an exercise that confined your format, and now you shall have one that confines your content.

You may write in what ever style you want, it may be poetry or prose. The emphasis on this piece will go on how your story is told. 

I want you to produce a narrative poem, there must be conflict and all the other things that are necessary to a story, however, the catch is, I want there to be a punch line. No matter what you do with your poem, the end must be funny. 

You have until Wednesday. Good Luck.

Author guidance for This poem

The first round saw a great clash of poetry and wits, as the contestants pitted their ideas of rhythm and rhyme to the ultimate test - against one another!

Now the second round is here and the remaining contestants are asked to focus on content, how easy is it to write comic verse? Some will say it is really easy to write comic verse, but I say it is inexplicably hard to write GOOD comic verse, so I eagerly await the outcomes!
