You definitely win the slug experience and happily the rumble.

Well written poem about those nasty little critters. A few weeks ago I submitted a poem on a slug - unfortunately that slimy little devil was on a platter served at our table in a restaurant. YUK!! Its an image hard to get rid of. Your rhyming is great and it gave me something to smile about. Thanks and good luck!! Carol

Wow! I loved this poem. You have a great eye for capturing nature with glittering words. I could actually see the slugs markings with each word you used. Captivating and fun. Small things come in big packages. Awesome poem. Luvs

Their message on my sidewalk made me grouse and grumble,
so if they keep on coming back, I guess we'll have a rumble. This line made me smile. this Quatrain poem followed the rules and was well planned and constructed. .

It sounds kind of gross but if you collect all the slugs and put them in a box, feed them cornmeal, and after they stop pooping green, you can make escargot. Still hungry? I could see the imagery of the slugs and snails crawling.

Yes, it does sound kind of gross. I'll take the rumble instead.

An excellent way to rumble with pesky slugs it to place cups of beer near their routes. They are all beer-a-holics and can't stay away. It will dissolve them so if you're queasy, don't rumble this way. Fun read and spoof as you say. I enjoyed it. Good luck in the voting.
