Yep, Spike Milligan FTW!
String is a very important thing,
Rope is thicker,
But string is quicker.

Egg Haiku by Tourette's, aged 40 and a half
Scrambled, poached or fried,
Choppy-uppy in a cup,
Lovely tastey eggs.

Solidifies in the heat
Of the frying pan

Poetry's for poofs and girls
Except for limericks.

Eggs are aces though.

OK then.
There was a young woman from Leeds
Who swallowed a packet of seeds
From out of her arse
Came a tuft of grass
And now she's all covered in weeds.

YOU CALLING ME A POOF?

Eggs Eggs Eggs - by spikeypickle, aged 31 and a half (nearly)
I like eggs
Eggs are great
Here's a poem
About some eggs I ate

One softboiled
So the yolk is like jelly
I found this egg
Made my farts dead smelly.

I had one poached
I had one fried
They all made my farts
Smell like something died.

I boiled a thousand
And ate them with bread
I ate all thousand
And now I'm dead.

Why do French people only ever eat 1 egg?

Because 1 egg is an oeuf!

Egg poem by NakedApe aged 27 3/4

Scrambled, fried, poached or boiled
Too eggs many and you find you've soiled,
Your best trousers or pretty skirt,
Ruining your chance to flirt with bert,

Have no fear, it's no bother,
He likes it backwards, the way of the others,
Cooking up eggs like Gordon or Delia,
Get down with Bert and his Corprophilia.

From the humble quial to the mighty ostridge

My favourite poet
has to be that lovely Bono from the popular band U2. Especially that one he does about the mole digging a hole, digging out his soul down deep in excavations.

Almost as bad as, "planet earth is blue and there's nothing I can do".

A poem about eggs by DG, aged 38 and a few months, soon the be 39, my god where did the years go? Eh? Eh?
Eggs are brilliant
Eggs are great
A fried egg butty
Is what I ate.

I took a bite
Into the yolk
And then it dribbled
All down my lovely clean shirt that I only put on an hour ago, I mean, I've got far better things to do than wash and iron shirts having only worn them for an hour.

Fucking eggs. Bastards. It's all the chicken's fault you know.

And Asda's, for selling eggs in the first place.

Cunts.

A small poem by mistaspakkaman aged 35¾
My way of eating eggs
involves legs
and pegs.
My mouth begs.

_{Somehow, I think I'm doing it wrong}
