The Dingo Kid

Beware of the dingo and watch out for your goat,
he hates our current leader, but is unable to vote.
He’s been doing hard time for relations with a horse,
he finally escaped but then he was caught, of course.

Back to Yuma he will go in a red dress and cuffs,
sleeveless I might add as he huffs and puffs.
He’s pretty sneaky this dingo and he’s fond of our landscape,
if he catches wind of your sheep he might try to escape.

I pray Terry and Dave keep a close eye on this chap
the dingo is not picky about what he puts on his lap.
He’s a menace to ranchers and all animals in town,
even in the car park, on the low he is down.

The good folk in Milton Creek will surely watch for his return,
this dingo is full of disease and spreads a rash that will burn.
Don’t try to be a hero, if you hear him talking rough,
he’s been working his fingers and he was born keyboard tough.

Lol this is pure gold Sheriff, a great shame cctv wasn't invented when he took advantage of the poor horse. I'd have put it on utube or tiktok if they'd also been invented. A fave for me. Tom

Oh my gosh, what a disgusting creature! Sounds like he's a cross between a rabid dingo and the big bad wolf. Since we know he reads poems in PS, although he's been banned, I'm pretty confident he'd be hurling stones at us if he could. Of course, he can always make up an alias or 10 like his buddy used to do.

He is a foul one for sure. He now has added a d in his name, I’m sure it stands for disgusting.
