Gimme more Gimmidee
I swear you said
So who am I
To not oblige you
So I came back

Okay okay
You knew that I would
Since that is what I said I'd do
And I can bring you 16 panels
Of Gimmidee art
The writing from the start
And the panels in time
But for now it's just
The poetry
And I like to hope
That you're okay with that

So what's the Iking gonna be today
Since I should give you more
Than just three little verses
Because what kind of literary snack is that
At least yesterday
Was your introduction to me
Your favourite Gimmidee
Ik Probeer het
Who remains the only one
That you have met

But until you get to see the panels
Anything I write
Won't feel as right as it should be
So this is hardly the strongest opening
That I could show you now
Because I could have waited
To lease this page
From its human owner
Who's been lax in posting
In the year but since
He's had the site

The long and the short of it is
I couldn't bear to see the place
Remain but quiet
When he should have been posting
If not daily
Or even weekly
Then with some kind of regularity
That he hasn't been doing

So I want you to think of me
As better than him
And something yes
Is better than nothing eh
Though you can surely tell me if
I'm flat out wrong

But for now
I start off shakily
And hope you bear with me
Because I'd hate for my first offerings
To be looked on down
As nothing good
Which is understood
Bcause no one sets out
To create a klunker

Unless they do of course
But that ain't me
I'm here to make a name for myself
As that's the greatest aim
of the Gimmideee
Of which I'm one
And The only one you need to know

Now it's not that I'm jealous
of all the others
And terrible too
compared to any of them
But I'm the one who said to myself
That I should pick up this space
And make good use of it
Which I'm doing now
So you'll surely forgive me
For being the only Gimmidee
That you need to meet

But our time today
Is over now
Because I can only vamp so long
And this has been
Yes long enough for me
And you as well
