October 8, Happy Octopus Day!

From The Collected Poems of Briseadh na Faire:

OCTO-GONE

Once, I caught an octopus
While fishing with my brother Gus.

“Wow!” said he, “An octopi!”
As it hit him in the eye.

Don’t you think it rather odd,
That this type of octopod

Should keep warm by growing fur,
In the month of October?
