The Hamster and the Bird

Work by Jacob Potter, written in the form of an epic poem, allegorising the tale of his friends Elise and Evie. Though not very widely read, it's commentary on childhood, romance, and the American obsession with violence are thought by the text's cult following to make the poem one of the greatest of all time.
