No, really, I am writing a novel, because I can, and I'm posting it on blogger, because I'm mad. Here's a poem I'm going to use somewhere in it, about one of my characters. While I'm typing it up, go there and read the latest installment in my, er, masterpiece.
Natalia the beautiful!
Natalia the fair!
Natalia has ostriches
A-nesting in her hair!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia the elegant!
Natalia the svelte!
Part Indian, Part Eudaemonian,
Part Dravidian, part Celt!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is tricky!
For once she used a chair
In a very cunning fashion
To entrap a grizzly bear!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is naughty!
Natalia is mean!
For once she called Professor Galt
A silly old has-been!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is horrible!
Natalia doesn't care!
She likes to look at antelopes
In women's underwear!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia can't remember
What Natalia can't forget!
So once she left her carrots out
And they got very wet!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
If you should meet Natalia,
Then you should be aware
That she is very partial
To eating fish with camembert!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is pretty scary,
Let me tell you now!
For she once read Euclid's Theorems
To a rather restless cow!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia once kissed me
On a most amusing dare!
My heart beat twice as fast that day
And I had to take some air!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is wonderful!
Natalia is great!
Though once she and a rabbit
Went out upon a date!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Natalia is jolly good!
She's more nice than you can bear!
She's a very natty dresser!
Her stockings have such flair!
Natalia the beautiful!
Natalia the fair!
She's a bad-ass! Yeah!
She's a bad-ass!
Yeah!
Yeah!
Yeah!

and the beat goes on...
Confusing your genres? The chorus thingy seems to detract from your poetic licence.
Heavy metal isn't about poetic licence. It's about the feeling, man. Yeah, man. We don't need no stinking licence!
About the Dravidian part... Is that a subpart of her being Indian, or it's a separate part? Like, the non-Indo-European part, or sum'thin'?
--Desargues
It should probably have been a separate part. I think I might substitute something like 'Navajo' for it.
BTW, do you have a blog, DesArgues?
