http://en!.wikipedia!.org/wiki/satire (click on parts relating to literature in the Contents Box at the top of this entry, and
http://www!.wiktionary!.org (put satire in the search box) for definitions of satire (suggest you follow the External Links at Wiktionary (scroll down) to read other dictionaries on this word, since Wiktionary rarely covers 'all' there is)!.

Have you ever read any books by Kurt Vonnegut, Joseph Heller, often Oscar Wilde, Christopher Moore, et!. al!.!? They wrote (or are writing, in Moore's case) satire, so if you've read books by them, you should be able to put a simple definition of literary satire together with examples, and write your own satirical paper!.

Don't worry too much!.
Two pages is a very short assignment!.
Good luck!.
ADD: I now see your addition!. Yep, Swift wrote satire too!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Satire is certainly one of the most entertaining and insightful genres!.
What I suggest is that you find something about society, politics, war, relationships, religion, etc you don't like!. Find negative qualities about them that you would like to change and change it with humour!. Satire is all about poking fun or attacking something you don't like!. You should take a serious topic and make it funny!. For example, if you think funerals are ridiculous, write a 2 page paper about how you think they are ridiculous!. Exaggerate the ridiculous details in order to make it funny!. Www@QuestionHome@Com
