Glitch Girl's Freedom Fortress Freedom Force Poetry Jam
by various

This is a collection of tidbits from an actual message thread at the Freedom Force Message Board. It was inspired by boredom and achieved... um... well it achieved something, I'm not sure what. We now present the good, the bad, and the "Oh my God, you SAVED THAT?!?!!"... the poems of the FF Boards.
-Glitch Girl


My name is Ant,
And here is my Slant,
Some time please grant,
To read my cant.

I was digging around,
When on the ground,
I had found,
A giant ant Mound.

With Energy X,
I got new effects,
my body it protects,
along with other prospects.

With a woman's charm,
I almost bought the farm,
When I went to harm,
The Freedom Force swarm.

Then I saw the light,
Was taken from my plight,
And went to fight,
Those that oppose right.

My story is short,
with a little effort,
you can retort,
and give your own report.

My poetry is lame,
But this is a game,
that I have to blame,
On an empty brain.
-Mercury


Mercury...

You must be under stress

from too much chess,

but we couldn't care less...

Burma-shave
-Direwolf


manwithnoname: There once was an ant from Nantucket..
Mercury: That was crawling on the edge of a bucket....
hellscorp: A wind came along
Aknot: That's the END OF THIS SONG!
GlitchGirl: and the rest of the poem, we chucked it.


There once was a villain named Pan
As demi-gods go: also ran
When jilted by Eve
He zapped Citizen Steve
and said 'Thave me, you bull of a man..."

Not that there's anything wrong with that...
-manwithnoname


Man-Bot, a hero 'tis true,
Is in a bit of a stew,
Now he only may walk,
'round the Celestial Clock
But we all hope he's back in part 2

-GlitchGirl


When Mechanical's mechanized chump
was given a butt-kicking thump
and he tried to restart
his automaton's heart,
said 'Could somebody give me a jump?'
-manwithnoname


There was once a forum online,
That went on in hideous rhyme,
It was really quite boring
To the point where I'm snoring,
And...... Damn this is bad!
-DuckDude13


From the future came a 'bot named Microwave
To Patriot City, which he happened to save
The people were pleased
and fell to their knees.
Now that's how a hero behaves!
-Direwolf


Neither pestilence, plague, foe, or slime
but increasingly hideous rhyme
was the weapon, of course,
to defeat Freedom Force,
for the malevolent Master of Time.

Then the diabolic Deja Vu
Said "Hey, let me have a crack, too!"
And proceeded to write
the most gawdawful shite
that a villain was e'er heard to spew.
-manwithnoname


FF haiku: Freedom Force The Game
Often Modded Rarely Played
Rests In My Hard-Drive
-Phishhed


There once was a hero, The Mosquito
Who had a costume and powers quite neat-o
Then while saving a dame
he became engulfed in flame
El Diablo had eaten a burrito
-Knockback


(to the tune of "Willow Tit-Willow")

In a cave down below sat a glum villain-ess
Named Shadow, named Shadow, named Shadow
And she said to the darkmen "my face is a mess"
Said Shadow, said Shadow, said Shadow
"I'll drug a nerd hero, bring him back to my lair
Have his ants go aboveground and strip the town bare
Then we'll live in the cavern without worry or care"
Said Shadow, said Shadow, said Shadow

So the ants went a-raiding and caused quite a fuss
For Shadow, for Shadow, for Shadow
Stealing light poles and dumpsters and even a bus
To give to Shadow, to Shadow, to Shadow
But they got out of hand at the Freedom Base
Chasing Nick Craft around and trashing the place
And then the whole Freedom Force was on the case
To catch Shadow, catch Shadow, catch Shadow

Minuteman, Man-Bot, El Diablo and all
went after Shadow, after Shadow, after Shadow
Though The Ant and the darkmen tried their darnedest to stall
And hide Shadow, hide Shadow, hide Shadow
The heros broke in and they let the light fill
The lair of The Shadow which had been so still
And then she found out that looks really *can* kill
Shadow, dead Shadow, dead Shadow
-Sandman


[sung to the tune of "Modern Major General"]

Minute Man:
I am the very model
of a patriotic hero,
My heart is full of liberty
I never am a zero.
My super powers came
from a statue quite historical
And I can name the presidents,
in order categorical;

When I get into a fight,
the result is quite enevitable
My mighty swing and smash
leave a mark that's quite indellable
My battle cry "For Justice"
sends the villains all a'packing
My work is never done,
but you'll never seem me slacking!

Chorus:
His work is never done,
but you'll never seem him slacking!

-GlitchGirl


O' to MAN-BOT
Who's that man dress in steel?
Who has charm and sexy appeal
Who's always there to say the day
But from his friends, he will stray
-JeyNyce


Ode to Flashback
My Super Powers
Granted by Energy X
Have destroyed my mind.
-Phishhed


Beware... more to come!
Go Back
