Ну а читателям мужского пола желаю проявлять заботу по отношению к женскому полу не только в этот день, но и весь оставшийся год!

Ну что, Вы готовы к новому жанру в стихосочинительстве? Представляю Вам songfic - жанр песенных пародий, довольно популярный по-видимому за рубежом у фэнов различных сериалов и фильмов. Посмотрим, что про это знает wikipedia?
A songfic is a work of fiction set to the lyrics of a particular song. The term is derived from "song" and "fiction"; as such, one might also see the genre referred to as "songfiction". Songfics are a genre of artwork related to fanfiction in that both involve the poaching of text. The interplay of commercial art and folk art make songfics also similar in some ways to filk music, much of which uses commercial science fiction or fantasy as inspiration.
В этот выпуск я поместил songfic на известную песню группы Fort Minor и киноэпопею StarWars. Специально, для тех, кто хочет живьем услышать саму песню, я разместил ее здесь: http://ifolder.ru/1334282. Автор оставил неизменными (почти) слова песни. Они выделены курсивом.

Where'd You Go - A/T songfic by darth_dragon666

Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.

She said "Some days I feel like crap,
Some days I wanna quit, and just be normal for a bit,"
I don't understand why you have to always be gone,
I get along but the trips always feel so long,
And, I find myself tryna stay by the phone,
'Cause your voice always helps me when I feel so alone,
But I feel like an idiot, workin' my day around the call,
But when I pick up I don't have much to say,
So, I want you to know it's a little messed up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"

Tahiri stood and watched Anakin's body burn. How could he be dead? He was her hero. She let her realize she wasn't a stupid kid. He made her feel like a queen. Without him, she wouldn't be stnaidng there. Why did he have to sacrifice himself? Why didn't she give him that last kiss? She now had no one. Only her Anakin understood her.

Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...

You know the place where you used to live,
Used to barbeque up burgers and ribs,
Used to have a little party every Halloween with candy by the pile,
But now, you only stop by every once in a while,
Damn, I find myself just fillin' my time,
Doin' anything to keep the thought of you from my mind,
I'm doin' fine, and I'm plannin to keep it that way,
You can call me if you find you have somethin' to say,
And I'll tell you, I want you to know it's a little messed up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', at times debatin',
Tellin' you that I've had it with you and your career,
Me and the rest of the family here singing "Where'd you go?"

Tahiri sat in her apartment on Coruscant. It was the 10 year anniversery of Anakin's death. All she wanted to do was be alone. She had tried a relationship with Valin Horn, but he left her for Syal Antilles. He didnt completer her though. She still longed for Anakin. She was still convinced he was the only one for her. That wasn't happening though. He died ten years ago. She saw his body burned. She felt him die. He was gone and she was alone. Then she heard her door chime. She groggily got up and saw a note slide under the door. She opened it and it said
You will never be alone, my Angel.
I am always around.

Your Dummy
She flung open the door but the hallway was empty.
For the first time ever, Tahiri Veila smiled.

I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone,
Please come back home...

I want you to know it's a little messed up,
That I'm stuck here waitin', no longer debatin',
Tired of sittin' and hatin' and makin' these excuses,
For why you're not around, and feeling so useless,
It seems one thing has been true all along,
You don't really know what you got 'til it's gone,
I guess I've had it with you and your career,
When you come back I won't be here and you can sing it.
Where'd you go?

Tahri Veila sat on a bench in Unity Green. It was the only place she felt peace. Mostly due to their being Vuuzhan Vong things in it. It had been a year since she recieved the note. She hadn't gotten anything like it since. She was convinced he was still dead. Not even he could be alive. She looked around the park. She saw other couples sitting and walking, and proudly showing their love. She felt a hand on her shoulder and she turned. He stood there and falshed the Solo smile. "Did you really think I would leave you?" he said. anakin Solo pulled his old girlfriend up and kissed her. She finally smiled and wrapped her arms around his head as he picked her up. "Now Ms. Veila, I've been wanting to ask this for 11 years. Will you marry me?
Tahiri almost burst into tears, "Yes, i will, Dummy."

Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Where'd you go?
I miss you so,
Seems like it's been forever,
That you've been gone.
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...
Please come back home...

Anakin stood there as he saw his uncle escort Tahiri down the aisle. He looked toward his groomsmen, he saw his Jacen, Jag, Ben, and his father. His uncle was the minister. He looked at the bridesmaids; Jaina, his mother, Tenel Ka, and his aunt. As Tahiri finlly stood before him, he realized how lucky he was. As Luke went through all the happy stuff, Anakin just stared deep into Tahiri's green eyes. finally after the vows and "I do"s, his uncle finally said, "You may now kiss the bride." Anakin cupped his bride's cheek lightly in his hand and leaned down and kissed her. In both of their minds, their life was complete
