Animalpractice 2

A continuation of this from a few days ago. I read it out at the poetry tonight. Didn't really bring the house down but I don't think it's quite there yet, if you know what I mean.

The liger’s lie in time was lost
The lobster’s lobs were also tossed

The leopard’s paisleys turned to spots
The ocelittles turned to lots.

The Platy’s dogs were changes to pusses
From anima to animusses

Toucannots became toucans
Oranguwhites, orangutans

Spare-aisles all became sparrows
The min-yes changed to say minnow

The hundredpede was changed to cents
And then they starved the scorpulents

August bugs were switched to Junes
And crazy laughing ducks to loons

Terpositives became ter-mights
Some saber-teeth lost overbites

Barricouldn’ts found that they coulda
Katydon’ts thought that they shoulda

Hyen-ums switched to Hyen-uhs
Pandoesn'ts all became pandas.

The pterodactyl’s wings were torn
Some creatures lost their unique horns

Mosques converted all churchitos
Caused drowsy female deer to doze

The mantis, scared, began to pray
The blue Jen changed her name to Jay

The A-bras were all switched to zees
And then the monkeys lost their keys

Yeah, or it could be one of those things that he likes now and then later on realizes has a lot more levels that he realized. Y'know, like a Britney Spears song. I KID! I KID!
