Cyrano Dogrider
Cyrano runs to pudge and fluff;
Too much tuna, too little night prowling.
Damn fat cat makes Rover's neck hurt.
Cyrano bathes too little.
Those nasty fleas from Pogu IV?
He's a breeding ground for 'em.
Cyrano flexes his claws
to the detriment
of Rover's poor ears.
But tonight Rover's tears flow
like rivers,
like oil gushers,
like Old Faithful at the top of the hour.
He whimpers
(Because he is a good dog, a polite dog)
"I am not bathroom tissue."
✨
The toads of this roads are mighty bores
Ravaging through the M'verse for Ooorah's special scones
A phenomena called gobbling
Though me thinks it's just a sprint
Toadies were controlled by an orangutan extinct.
Unicorns you see
Weren't just fantasy
They lived amongst the cigarettes and hookahs illegally
Their horns were fused into infinite five rules
One that controls the M'Verse's muse.
In the threads woven with eons of verse
The mothership returns to its universe
Racing against time, is a battle with dangers fraught
The mothertroopers don't care a naught.

It's funny to think
That in some small pocket
Of this vast and endless M'Verse
You wouldn't have made such a stink.
And now we travel on this huge rocket
Mothership headed to infinite and beyond
Without you as part of our stalwart crew
Things have gotten better, not worse.
I am of course referring to the rotten, foul turd
Lodged in bathroom 24-B, somewhere in the piping of stall 13-E, toilet 7-C
Evacuated from my colon after the last spacewalk
Praise be to Jesus, Zeus, Allah, and the Almighty Toad King
We need to talk
Will any higher power come down and help me?
✨
The multiverse called out to me
"I'm spread across the fandoms of scifi fantasy
My branches laden with parsecs of sarcasm
The Captain came brandishing his shield or hammer
Whatever holds this Eye with win
The Cloak that defies Dr. Strange's whim."
I tried to pacify the multiverse
By reading Stephen King
But all went in vain
As I was ambushed by Lord of the Rings.
