NaPoWriMo 2021 Day 26 -- Chili Dog
[This is not a Chili Cheddar Cheese Dog,
it is a French Hot Dog, made in France.
There the true sausage is stuffed inside
a French Baguette cut to just over the
length of the wiener/sausage]
[to the tune of the Oscar Meyer Wiener Song]
That is what I truly wish to be
Cause if I were a Chili Cheddar Cheese Dog
Everyone would want two or three
Oh everyone would get so fat
Everyone would be Rolly Polly

I wish I were an Oscar Meyer Wiener
That is what I truly wish to be
Cause if I were a Oscar Mayer Wiener
Everyone would be in love
Oh everyone would be in love
Everyone would be in love with me
- I am linked with NaPoWriMo 2021 Day 26 (National Poem Writing Month) for the prompt idea, at https://www.napowrimo.net/day-twenty-six-7/
- And I am attempting to write at least one poem a day for the National Poem Writing Month. Today is Day 26 of the 30, you can see my progress here,
- Instructions were, ". . . like to challenge you to write a parody. Besides being fun, writing parodies can be a great way to hone your poetic skills – particularly your sense of rhyme and sound, as you try to mimic the form of an existing poem while changing the content. Just find a poem – or a song – that has always annoyed you, and write an altered, silly version of it. Or, alternatively, find a poem with a very particular rhyme scheme or form, and use that scheme/form as the basis for a poem that mocks something else."
