I've been snickering about this for the last few days

Epitaph for an Explorer
By Ogdan Nash

Reminds me of my own geniositical epigram re William Blake.

The Rose

O rose, thou art sick
to despite thy beauty
be such a prick.

... or my favorite Rudyard Kipling poem, which I once used in a speech meet:

The Secret of the Polar Bear
by Rudyard Kipling

The secret of the polar bear
Is that he wears long underwear.
