So you want to be a Mutant? (Limericks!)


by moomy_x

--------

There once was a plot by Doctor Sloth
Pets turned into a race many loathe
He created the mutants
By using pollutants
Formed an army pledging utter troth

Let’s say being mutant is one of your dreams
Joining the gang is not as hard as it seems
No idea why
It is worth a try
Must be nice to be part of Sloth’s schemes

You drink a transmogrification potion
Do not apply it like a fancy lotion!
You turn around twice
Pretend you look nice
And present Sloth your total devotion

Doctor Sloth accepts you into the group
You are now part of a deformed troop
At least you have friends
With funky scents
The new life of a young Mutant Lupe

Everyone here is an abomination
All of your friends underwent mutation
But you are no crooks
It is just the looks
It is quite nice in the Space Station

Thankfully mutants stick up for each other
Your mutant Grundo pal feels like your brother
The living is easy
But you’re a bit queasy
Because you realise Sloth is now basically your mother

You’re managing well, but something seems off
What are you hearing, a laugh or a cough?
You must have misheard
A laugh would be absurd
Doctor Sloth is the definition of tough

You’re in the gang, and all is merry
But somewhere inside you are a bit wary
You spotted the flowers
The giggling for hours
You have just learned Sloth is the Happiness Faerie..

To the ones precious to us
In Maraqua, twilight was defined by colour. Night–time flora that caught the sun’s light during the day while sleeping would awaken, colouring the ocean floor in their soft glows.
