Herewith, an excerpt of his "Ode on the Mammoth Cheese Weighing Over 7,000 Pounds": We have seen thee, Queen of Cheese, Lying quietly at your ease, Gently fanned by evening breeze; Thy fair form no flies dare seize. All gaily dressed, soon you'll go To the provincial show, To be admired by many a beau In the city of Toronto. from "Ode on the Mammoth Cheese" McIntyre's poetry is the subject of books in the twentieth century, however, the greatest boost to his fame probably comes from a number of his poems being anthologized in the collection Very Bad Poetry, edited by Ross and Kathryn Petras (Vintage, 1997).
