Subject: [FANFIC] Waspinator's Circus From: rosestar8@aol.com (Rosestar8) Date: 4/1/02 10:34 PM Central Standard Time Message-id: <20020401233439.07490.00001331@mb-cc.aol.com> |sf>I wrote this parody back on March 23, 1999, months before I saw the ending to the Beast Wars show. I've written very few BW related Fanfic items, because it's hard for me to take much of it seriously (Obviously, this isn't a serious Fanfic.). In any case, I wrote this for myself and I'm not sure how this will translate to people who've never read the children's books (by L. Leslie Brooke) that this pattern/style is based off of. It isn't a direct parody of the books' events, but it's a parody of the unusual rhymic pattern used by him and (although my parody is much less chaotic than his books) it's a parody of the 'chaotic style' I've always admired from those books, especially when I was really little. I'm posting this today (April 1st), because if someone doesn't like this, I can always blame it on the day. ;) Seriously, comments can either be directed to suz@cyberspace.org or in a reply to the newsgroup(s). If your reply is before April 8th, you can also e-mail a reply to this e-mail account (This is my traditional "post a Fanfic from the e-mail account to kiss it goodbye" posting.). I'm also going to upload this to my web page at http://www.cyberspace.org/~suz/fanfic.html (TFP--This post is marked Transformer Parody for the humor impared. In other words, this isn't meant to step on any copyrights, be it for the TF names/characters, the L. Leslie Brooke stories like "Johnny Crow's Garden," or anything else... I'm not doing this for any sort of profit, nor whould anyone else profit financially from this parody. I'm only doing this in the name of humor everywhere.) Waspinator's Circus by Suzanne M. Ferree Waspinator has healed his sore, So he starts to plan his circus, But Megatron Listens to the idea with a frown At Waspinator's circus. Scorpy makes a brand-new tent, But then forgets where it went. Luckily BA Spins a new one in a day For Waspy's poor circus. Inferno with pride Has caught Cheetor inside A cage for Waspy's circus, But unfortunately Cheetor shoots himself free From Waspy's poor circus. One of Tarantulas' schemes Creates the music machine For the circus, But Terrorsaur's overload Makes the gizmo explode All over Waspy's poor circus. However, ending Waspy's dream Doesn't make the bug scream. He just mumbles quietly his buggy word stream To say goodbye to his circus. --- Suzanne M. Ferree rosestar8@aol.com
