Did this on the BBC's writer's workshop website a few years back. The exercise required a fast verse in response, using the words: disaster, thorn and devil. The whole thing just fell together for me.
--------------
Pack for disaster
but dress for success.
Live a bit faster,
and live a bit less.
All that remains
at the end of the show
is the thorn in your side
and the devil you know.

Only posting this here because
1. I'm running into a lot of dark-ish things on this site, and
2. I was particularly proud to have written something that didn't sound
quite so much like a badly remembered Dr Seuss poem.
