Whip Em Off - For What Makes You Flinch Contest

Uneasy and queasy cos my TV set Is showing another celebrity vet My legs are crossed tight, just as tight as they get Has that little dog lost his testicles yet While eating my lunch, or was it my dinner The cat on the screen getting thinner and thinner The head vet was busy, so here’s a beginner On his second attempt to stick that needle in ‘er My hunger abates as the scalpel cuts in And the cyst on his throat splatters poor kittie’s chin My two horrid teenagers sit there and grin But my spag bolognese now resides in the bin The very long glove, that is slippery and wet Is meant for the cow, though they’ve only just met The vet seems as happy as any I’ve met Till the cow follows through and enshrouds the poor vet With Flopsy’s guts broadcast in X-ray exposure While Tiddles pukes hairballs inside his enclosure I wish it was more like a nice glossy brochure As another castration destroys my composure Date: 30 May 2019 Contest: What Makes You Flinch Sponsor: Julie Leigh Rodeheaver
