I'll give you a topic.

I just came across a site called the Random Poem Idea Generator.  Here are some of the suggestions it gave me:

Boldly advance wrong opinions about eagles saying everything twice but phrased differently

Throw a friendly arm around gophers in a cocktail dress (Are the gophers wearing the cocktail dress or are you?)

Indicate your preference for Michigan entirely in overheard dialogue (This just makes me think of Sufjan Stevens, so I would probably end up inadvertently plagiarizing him.)

Levy taxes on tigers in the form of an invoice (There's a Charlie Sheen joke in there somewhere.)

Plagiarize every line of a poem about the Midwest in the style of Dickinson (Look, I don't condone plagiarism, okay?)

Here is the result.  I sort of combined all the suggestions:

Animals in America

How many gophers to fill out a cocktail dress?
They wear it to sneak up on eagles.
Eagles are cowards.
They should be more like tigers
Attn: Eagles, you owe tiger tax.
What do you think of the Midwest?
Michigan wins America.
And yet he wandered through the heartland alone . . .

(That last line was borrowed from Edward Hirsch's "In the Midwest.")
