Pack, Peck, Or Pike Hexsonnetta

I had a house for sale
They asked me to hold it
Right before I sold it
But my house was a whale
That already set sail
And didn’t give a whit

But it thought what the heck
Coz it altered its tack
So I sold it to Pack
But forgot about Peck
Who was up on the deck
Which was on my whale’s back

But those guys I dislike
So I sold it to Pike

For the HexSonnetta contest

David, yours was a humorous one. If it had been with the correct meter, for sure it would have placed much higher!! Congrats in my contest.
