Crossword Genius

An old poem funnily satirised (9)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

lampooned

'satirised' is the definition.
('lampoon' can be a synonym of 'satirize')

'an old poem funnily' is the wordplay.
'funnily' indicates anagramming the letters.
'an'+'old'+'poem'='anoldpoem'
'anoldpoem' is an anagram of 'LAMPOONED'.

(Other definitions for lampooned that I've seen before include "made to look silly" , "Publicly ridiculed" , "Satirised" .)

I've seen this clue in The Independent.
