Yuletide Lad No.8: Skyrgámur (Skyr-Gobbler)

Skyrgámur (Skyr-Gobbler), loves skyr (milk curd) so much that he sneaks into the pantry and gobbles up all the skyr from the tub there...



Skyr Gobbler, the eighth,
was an awful stupid bloke.
He lambasted the skyr tub
till the lid on it broke.


Then he stood there gobbling
– his greed was well known –
until, about to burst,
he would bleat, howl and groan.
