I Was the Goon Who Chose the Raccoon

The horses’ lacy white petticoats and ribboned pantaloons Were kicked almost as high as a delightful orange harvest moon. The anger came from the big burly brown baboons Who were left out by the snotty uppity raccoon. I felt like an uninformed ridiculous goon, Because I had assigned the notorious snotty coons The task of doling out the petticoats and the pantaloons.

Sometimes my whimsical side flies, this was one of those.
