Pickle My Creation
Welcome, fine folks, but please be more attentive!
The emus and ostriches aren't what they seem
They may look stupid, but they're quite inventive
Gene-splicing new platypi (a monotreme).
Welcome, weathered friend and amanuensis
Come, have another absinthe while you wait.
We cater for the mind and all its senses,
Your usual five, plus a six we'll create
Gengineered baobab lofts high; this one bears fruit --
Half peach, half pelican, half plasticene
Slowly commencing to transmute
Into a form which none have ever seen
You'll see them, my friends, if you pay a small sum
Many inquire, but few brave souls come.
