adoptedwriterStill, he was misunderstood.
His momma was Sherry; his brother was Larry.
Together they lived in the wood.
He wasn’t too picky; his life wasn’t tricky.
He played in the pouch and ate well.
People thought he was icky and might make one sickly,
and sometimes he had a bad smell.
He wasn’t luxurious. He was always non-spurious
His heart was as big as the seas.
But Perry was curious which made Momma furious;
For danger was just past the trees.
One night he snuck out and wandered about
Looking for fun and for food.
He followed his snout to a bucket of trout.
It put him in such a great mood.
When Perry got closer he began to think ‘No sir,
This isn’t a good choice for me.’
It wasn’t a bucket so Perry said “Fuck it”
And he ran as fast as can be.
He dashed past some rocks and spotted a box.
That would be perfect for hiding.
But out jumped a fox; now that was a shock
who inside the box was residing.
So Perry played dead which gave the fox dread;
It decided to leave him alone.
Perry rose and ran faster across the great pasture
He finally made his way home.
