Snail Boy and Dalmation

Snail boy brought his sidekick Ruffus with him. An Illinois Dalmation so tiny, he fit under a whim. But that does not make sense said my literal cousin Iim. Who would not know a metaphor if it stopped and bit him. They are superheroes, right? Asked my strange cousin Kim. She is always adding on to rumors with doses of vigor and vim. I did not know what to say, so I hung upside down on an oak limb. Hoping she would be taken care of by our mutual cousin Jim.
