Quashing the urge to rush his foe
(Or, madder still, to say hello!)
Handharp did smartly hide away
There to his beefy foe survey.
He watched the Hob sit him a spell,
And sigh, and scratch his biceps fell,
And pick his nose, and crack his back,
And then to open up his sack.
And what was in that canvas shroud,
But a GOBLIN GIRL, nose turned up proud!
Her hands all bound with velvet rope,
And in the clutches of this dope!
"Soon, my sweet, we shall away!"
These words the Hob was heard to say.
"To where our love need never hide,
And I your groom! And you my bride!"
"Again, I object heartily,"
The Gob girl says, but "Joyous Be!"
Her proud fiancee interrupts.
"What joy must lie in wait for us!
"And must it not be through that joy
The blood feud 'twixt our tribe destroy,
And must not our highest holy vows
A reigning time of peace allow?"
"OK," she says, "but here's the thing.
Hobgoblins suck. So do their rings.
And their wedding parties doubly suck.
And you would look shit in a Tux.
"So untie this shit and let me go."
The Hobgoblin laughs. "O, my love, no!
For in Kingdom Hob, at wane of light,
We two shall be as one! Tonight!"
