OCT 10, a brief saga (ambulatory verse): creep and variant verbs
You can review all our verses on this topic, accumulated for you on our companion blog "Edifying Nonsense", by clicking HERE.
For the purpose of this blog, a 'brief saga' is defined as a poem, usually narrative, but occasionally expository, that tell its story in at least 15 lines. Most commonly, the format involves three stanzas in limerick form, constituting a single submission to the online humor site 'Omnificent English Dictionary in Limerick Form'. On the OEDILF site, rigorous standards for content and format are involved in a collaborative editing process that may take several weeks to over a year.
There are now over 40 of these lengthier bits of doggerel featured at OEDILF in Giorgio's "Author's Showcase". The OEDILF number for each accepted multiverse poem is shown here on the slide with its first verse. We have been blog-publishing these poetic adventures here monthly since January 2020.

OCT 2, birdlore: pigeon-porn (billing and cooing)
EDITORS' WARNING: You must be at least 12 years of age to view this post!
Authors' Note: The author recently obtained a photo-exposé of the activity as performed on a nearby sidewalk. He finds it appropriate to describe pigeon-mating in writing with the aid of binomial expressions (italicized in the above verse). You can find out a lot more (several collections of illustrated verse) about these grammatical gems by clicking HERE.
And HERE's a fine British you-tube video showing a much more protracted version, including extensive foreplay, i.e. 'billing and cooing'. It lasts about a minute.
