The Starveling Cat! A rhyming competition

I was taking a mental health break but now I am back! You are correct, entries have closed. Since there were 15 entries and 14 prizes, and rather than leave one person out, you all get things! When fallingkitten and I have a moment to sit down and figure out what the words you have gifted us have earned you, we will do so (within a day or two).[/quote]

Thank you for responding. The complete lack of information had me worried.

Starveling Stole!
Starveling Stole!
That’s what it gets
For staining your soul


Hark DeGaul
While seeking a Master’s lost name,
You’ll meet a cat that can only cause pain.
It leaves a stain on your soul,
By eating it whole
And leaving what’s left in the drain.

Parabolan Kitten!
Parabolan Kitten!
Got it for a rhyme
I had quickly written

Parabolan Kitten!
Parabolan Kitten!
Stuck in a crate
By zailors thrown in

Parabolan Kitten!
Parabolan Kitten!
Swam to Polythreme
On a Rusty Steamer

Parabolan Kitten!
Parabolan Kitten!
Met a talking mitten
And got eaten


Socratease
The Starveling Cat!
The Starveling Cat!
Eating our words!

You can bugger a Snuffer for just a few candles,
Or grab Overgoat’s horns and then use them as handles,
You can bugger a zailor right in his port of call,
But the Starveling Cat cannot be buggered at all.

You can bugger an artist (though he will come back),
And you can trust a spy to be great in the sack,
You can bugger Feducci after a good brawl,
But the Starveling Cat cannot be buggered at all.

You can bugger a Clay or a Rubbery Man,
As for buggering devils, you probably can,
You can do an L.B., though they’re terribly small,
But the Starveling Cat cannot be buggered at all.

You can bugger a tiger, if your name’s Millicent,
You can bugger ol’ Penstock to save on the rent,
For an orgy, just come to Ambassador’s Ball,
Yet the Starveling Cat cannot be buggered at all.

Urchins say, if you try, you can bugger the sky
Or a false-star as it sails so gracefully by,
You can bugger Bazaar until Sixth City’s Fall -
But the Starveling Cat cannot be buggered at all!

The starveling kitten, the starveling kitten! It knows the things that are left unwritten!

The Starveling Cat!
The Starveling Cat!
Knows some neat words
That rhyme with &quotCat&quot![/spoiler]
Two people also sent me cat boxes with rhymes attached during the competition period, who are also getting cats.
The rhymes were:
The stirveling kit! The stirveling kit! Won’t bulge from the doorframe, Not one little bit!
&quotThe sterveling ket! The sterveling ket! The craziest creature That I’ve ever met!

Forgive me for my unacquaintance with the mysteries of rhyming competitions, but what does &quotin the mail&quot refer to? FL Messages tab? Your own e-mail? PM’s?

Excellent! Thank you for the small army of ravenous cats!

Oh, thank you for letting me know. I will await my reward patiently.
