The Adventures of Biggles and His Intrepid Spaniel Stig Amongst the Giant Pygmies of Beckles Vol.8

Title by Chilly Heinz

Biggles was an adventurer
and a character on the page
He traveled through space and time
when his twin needed to be saved.
He captured the Menace from Space
and fought the Golden Bird
He tackled the toughest Tiger
Then let his voice be heard.
It was the Battle of Britain
that captured all the glory
and helped to blend the pieces
of this silly story.

Stig may appear as a sidekick
but can be the instigator
so don’t let the spaniel fool you
Stig was a creator.
He may have been fearless
in so far as what he put to the page
But when it came to the Giant Pygmies
It might as well have been rage.
He lunged right towards them
as he got up all his nerve
but what happened next
ventures on the absurd.
Stig ran right up to them
but couldn’t hold his bladder
he abruptly stopped inches away
as they wondered, “What’s the matter?”
He then took aim on the Giant Pygmies
from the town of Beckles.
As his urine hit them
their skin developed freckles.
The Giant Pygmies were gentle people
so they didn’t know what to do
As Stig passed out
They realized he had more than a few.

Biggles finally caught up
and saw Stig on the ground
He apologized for his friend
and said he’d buy the next round.
The Quizzo master started
this game of the obscure.
The two teams kept coming back
always wanting more.
The oxymorons made him laugh
and he commented on every one
He’s just glad that they decided
to come out and have some fun.
As it turns out
there was a little Magic tonight
the Giant Pygmies took the lead
without much of a fight.

Stig had awoken
but was much to embarrassed today
It’s not normal for him
to ever act this way.
Earlier in the day
he went to the bookstore
The clerk didn’t have what he wanted
but he always kept asking for more.
After they both gave up looking
they went to the local pub.
They had a few drinks
but obviously not enough grub.

Then Stig met up with Biggles
just in time for Quizzo.
The place was unusually empty,
so many people didn’t show.
Biggles decided to go outside
to make some quick phone calls
He tried to get more people to join
but he couldn’t reach them all.

So the battle was on-
from comic to stage,
as this twisted adventure
goes down on the page.
