The Mystery of Humpty Dumpty
The day was sunny all the Kings soldiers
And all the Kings men were training and working,
It had been deigned necessary by the king that a wall was needed
To keep out trespasses from other nursery rhymes,
After all his kingdom needed to protect its borders
And ensure he made it great again
From the threat of little Bo Peep, Jack and Jill as well others,
However the King allowed Humpty Dumpty reside there
Because he was very rich and the king loved other rich people.
On this fateful sunny day though Humpty Dumpty decided to climb up on the wall
He wanted to see how the lesser peasant nursery rhyme people were doing,
He saw they were unhappy with the wall
But Humpty could careless and mocked them from on high,
As he did this he suddenly, inexplicably tumbled backward
Humpty fell off the wall!
With a loud noise Humpty cracked
The ground shook,
All the Kings horses and all the Kings men tried putting him back together again
But failed.
Who did this deed?
Who could be so callous and brutal?
Some conspiracy theorists said it was the king
Others said it was the other nursery rhyme people
Or was it merely a false flag?
Either way the king took the opportunity to use this tragedy
And invade, kill and oppress other nursery rhyme lands
Leaving them destitute and in a mess,
Then offered them the chance to let him help rebuild at a cost
Using all his Kings horses and all his Kings men,
What a kind king he was.
