monkeypie

 

Porcupine! O porcupine!

Does nothing rhyme with porcupine?

My porcupine is a concubine,

A concubine with plentiful spine,

Some say she is asinine.

My concubine porcupine is asinine-

 

Basset hound! O basset hound!

Does nothing sound like basset hound?

I once was lost but now am found,

The bishop’s crown is gold and round,

The groundhog digs a dirty mound,

The basset hound found a dirty round mound-

 

Organist! O organist!

Does nothing list with organist?

Sometimes she gets really pissed,

And shoots gorillas in the mist,

Could she be a communist?

The communist organist gets pissed in the mist-

 

Monkeypie! O monkeypie!

What on earth is a monkeypie?

Does it come down from the sky?

Can it be seen with the naked eye?

I would like to find out, so we should try,

You and I

Shall try to spy

That marvelous monkeypie from the sky-
