i was juss sorta crusin' aroun' and found some o' the early stuff... real good.  
primo.  y'all really oughta take a look at "Poems of the First Year" in the 
archives at:
http://halfdan.med.umn.edu:8853/misc/archives/Files/Fridays---Poems-of-the-First-Year


like this fer 'zample:
JABBERWAGEN
by Screwloose Feral [uh, that would be Mr. Walker]


Twas brilliant, and the propane stoves
     Did fyre and syzzle in the van;
All sparkle were the splits and loaves
     And the idle thoughts outran.


"Beware the Jabberwagen bus!
     "The rattles that ne'er cease their speech!
"Beware the Bus-Bus chorus line,
     "And listen not to what they preach!"


He lifted up his greasley tools;
     Long time the irksome rattle sought ...
Til slumbered he by the Half-Fast Tree
     And rested eyes in thought.


... well, it goes on.  refresh yourself and take a visit.  bring a good cup of 
coffee and a friend.
-dan (a little sentimental today)
