Poetry Form 1 - Quick Portraits

I'm not a fan of this poetic style. But, I thought to myself, if I have to write it anyway I may as well post it.

Form:
Did you ever see a/an __?
_-_, _-_, _-_, _.

My attempt, shoddy as it is:

Did you ever see a Sea Dragon?
Tiger-striped, Kingsnake-speckled, leafy-finned, opalescent.

:(

I have Freshers' Flu.
You never think it'll happen to you.
"My immune system is fine", you say to yourself.
PAH.

Not quite a poem, but I thought it was funny. That's probably the germs going to my brain. OH Lord.
