Hunger Games (For Ana Sophia)

Little Miss Muffet

Sat on her tuffet

And what a nice tuffet indeed

 

Along came a spider

Sat down beside her

Said, “Hey babe, you’re something I need”

 

She set down her food

And thought, Damn, how rude

This insect thinks he is Prince Charming

 

He crawled to her thigh

With a wink of his eye

Gave a laugh at his thoughts so alarming

 

The closer he got

It became quite hot

His tiny heart rapidly beating

 

With a swipe of her hand

She ended his plan

Yelling, “Get lost, can’t you see I’m eating?”

 

Author's Note

Ana challenged me to write an off beat nursery rhyme. Not my best, but I tried.
