Irony

a scarecrow smiles, an infant sneers a lion bleats, a lamb growls thieves chase the police, pea-hens strut feathers n’ dance everything is topsy-turvy~ in sync with the times!

Yet people want to know why that scarecrow was not wearing a facemask! Enjoyed! Aloha!

Valsa, that's a skillful topic. So each line represents incongruity that I can understand feel. My favorite line is "thieves chase the police:) "
