Rodney Rodent
Have you met Rodney yet?
Was it a dog? Was he her pet?
He’s made partly of gears and stuff
Smokes and also uses tobacco snuff.
Rodney Rodent is steampunk through and through
He gives me shivers said my cousin Sue
I finally met him, a formidable man.
Made partly of tin and a copper can.
He is not that scary I told her, he’s kind.
Still terrified, she has a doubting mind,
Rodney spoke and she fainted away.
I shrugged my shoulders, nothing to say.
