You want to steal a ballad.

There was a man named Tony...
He was homoloveual...
He enjoys killing people...

Call it "The Ballad of Gay Tony".

I Laughed so hard at this

The assignment is simple.  It doesn't get much easier than Quatrains and ABAB.  It's not a stinking sonnet.

Nevermind, ive just completed this, thanks to Lord tony I did do about a pirates wife, took me like 5 mins, thanks guys!
