Sheila Bee and Her Clones

Sheila Bee turned herself into six clones.
Relatives got scared; things got comical.
They got a fantastic discount on their cell phones.
But their food bills were astronomical!

They played tricks on their neighbors for weeks.
Showed up as a mob at all her play dates. 
Soon known in town as the craziest freaks. 
Clones had to be spread out in other states. 

Sheila Bee’s still thought of in a weird way.
I know because she married my brother. 
Her neighbors wish that she would move away.
She is still strange one way and another.
