I was born in the clutches of
The line between night and day
That hour when the meld together
My fists tight
My eyes bright blue
My body as light as a feather
My mother hated me instantly
I was nothing but a curse
So she threw me off a cliff so I
Couldn't make it worse
I fell into the Ocean
Salt water filled my veins
But instead of choking to my death
It was fins I was to gain
A pod of friendly Narwhals
Feeling pity at my plight
Took me in as one of them
Taught me to swim, to love, to fight
My mother, having a Narwhalish name
Was called Bonniby Boo
Her horn was 15 miles long
And I'm not kidding you
My father was a loving type
Though a rough and tumble
He took great pride in his pod
Not the least bit humble
So days passed and weeks swam by
And I began to grow
Into a Narwhal just like them
In the Ocean flow
I adventured with my family
The unicorns of the sea
We fought and swam and loved and jammed
As the love grew inside of me
Then one day by a fisherman's net
I was pulled from my salty home
They put me in an Ocean park
In a giant dome
So in a desperate attempt to escape
I suddenly grew wings
I flew into the air and found
I love Sky-related things!
A family of Magpies took me in
And we cackled and laughed all day
And stole the shiny things that humans
Loved and had to pay
But my loving family of feather-brains
I knew was not to last
I smacked down to earth again
By a jet engine blast
Into the African Savanna I fell
The plain grass tickled my toes
And in attempt to fit in
Grew an Elephants nose
A family of Elephants took me in
But were a bit wary
For I had a horn, wings, a nose
And was not the least bit hairy
After a while, though the family was kind
I began to get quite bored
So I ran away to the Arctic ice
Where mighty Ice Bears roared
A pelt of thick white fur then grew
So I was adopted by the bears
But they were rough and soon pushed me out
For I was a freak with all my wears
Now I had no where to go
Where do my kind live?
The horned, winged, long nosed furries
Who has some love to give?
So I traveled far and long and far
In a desperate search for love
A family of Jackals maybe?
Penguins? Dogs? A Dove?
Then I came to the shores
Of a place called Madagascar
"What is that creature's story?" some ask
"I don't know. Go ask her."
