Lizards of Galapagos
Lizards of Galapagos
Lizards on Galapagos are large
With appendages going this way and that
Not human in most regards
Iguanas crawl and that’s not all
They dance the Fandango but not the Hula
(In consideration of the rules)
We are happy to report
They eat flesh but not in church
Sex is forbidden as well
In isles and in pews
All creatures on Galapagos have lizard smiles
Are quiet when they sleep
And when they die…
Become extinct
