The alligator grabbed his hat and his cane
Took Hap theTomato and they left for Spain
He wiggled his ears when they boarded the plane,
And said, “I have no idea why I did that.”
Sarah, the flight attendant said to the gator
“The in flight movie is “Terminator”
“I once thought this was the one with Darth Vadar,
“But I don’t know why I would have thought that.”
Pilot O’Hara came on and said,
“There’s turbulent winds coming ahead.
“But you'll all be safe if you stand on your head.
“Although I’m not sure how that would be helpful.”
After three hours, they should get to Spain soon,
‘Til the plane was hijacked by a duck and a loon
Armed with a slingshot and a whaling harpoon.
And they said, “We don’t really know what to do next.”
So they brought the plane to the Isle of Wight.
They landed the plane under cover of night
And the gator told Sarah he was hungry for a bite,
And now Sarah goes by the nickname of Lefty.
The loon promptly left and joined up with a flock
The alligator claimed he ate Captain Hook’s clock
But Hap the tomato thought that was a croc
And the poet said, “Sorry for that stupid pun.”
The duck said he needed to migrate soon
So he went to a pawn shop and sold his harpoon
And he migrated all the way to the moon
And gasped “I wish I’d thought of an oxygen tank."
The gator wanted more bites from Sarah
But she had eloped with pilot O’Hara
So he turned the tomato to marinara
And lived Haplessly ever after.
If the point of this poem is something you've pondered
All that it means is that your time was squandered
I wrote it one night when my mind had wandered,
But what's worse, me wasting my time writning it or you wasting yours reading it.
