The Falls

Part XI (The Falls)

After the great race
(The Emus came in Seventh),
The Emus did rest.

With resting complete,
And rats in their spinal discs,
The Emus could walk.

With out the Jet-Paks,
Their speed just wasn't grueling.
And so they all sigh

The great sigh Echoed;
Reverberated through snows –
With Seventeen Falls

The Seventeen falls –
The Great monument of Báäâåk
Which none can deny

Are Sweet, just like milk,
Milk, salty with all the flesh
Of Báäâåk’s Chartreuse Cats

Báäâåk does seek revenge –
Revenge on his young nephew –
Who will go to fly

Báäâåk asks the Emus
To help them with his brave quest –
So he can prevail

The Emus consent -
To help Báäâåk with his brave quest -
And his Chartreuse Cats.

But alas, alak!
Alaz, alax, alal, slat!
The Nephew has flown.

In Báäâåk's greatest rage,
He struck out at the Emus!
Helpless as they were.

But Báäâåk's Chartreuse Cats
Protected all the Emus –
He thwarted poor Báäâåk

The Emus all said,
If we had all them Jet-Paks,
We could catch him soon

Will you help us steal
The Paks from the great Allfghbo’r
Who has Won the race?

Now Báäâåk sighed a sigh
Worth remembering for years –
He said, Yes, I will

The emus Could not
Conceal their great Happiness –
Even as they said:

Quintessentially,
Iowa is Iowa –
It’s mediocre
