The Dragon, Platypus and Unicorn - Revised
I
A dragon, platypus, and unicorn,
drank in a bar and soon locked horns.
The air was tense - would it come to blows?
The unicorn spoke, "Which one knows
a truth which he dares to conceal?
One of us is... disgracefully real."
II
"It's a sad state of affairs - is it not,"
said the dragon, "when one of us is caught".
Sweat broke out in little beads
on the platypus forehead of evil deeds.
In a fate worse than he had feared,
the platypus simply disappeared.
