Notes About The Poem

Minions Find a New Language

On a night sable, my door hastily thrown abducted in a rush by one-eyed loonies, neon- yellow skin reflecting oval heads whisking me in a shuttle, circling far away. Taken to a realm where their master reigned, impish a jabber, worse than 'Nanu, Nanu ,' stuttering words, a version of 'Yabba daba doo!' until minions got enticed by my own Beyonce tune. While I hummed some more, they gathered in peace their nimble fingers reading my human mind. But as time was running out for an escape, everyone heard the despotic lord, groaning aloud dressed in a chrome-like armor, totally grim ordering the puppets, his slaves for my deadly fall. Instead, all minions clobbered this evil one as the land of orbit grew warm in sunset's kiss, happy loonies practicing new lyrics, Beyonce's song. 2/26/2016 Minions Contest sponsored by Silent One

What a fertile imagination you have. I was captivated by your use of expressions from the Flintstones and Mork-Mindy! Let those minions sing!

Goodness, this could be an interesting storyline for the next minion movie! I can imagine those characters singing with Beyonce. Really a creative poem way out of what's ordinary!

Their voices are squeaky-- no wonder minions wanted to tune in to a new beat. Outrageously funny poem!
