She’s taken to eating the people
The bones have all lost their allure
I’m uncertain the sudden attraction
And less so, the path to a cure
The dollhouse is going to need ramps
‘Cuz none of these people can walk
I found a chewed leg on the front lawn
It came as a bit of a shock
The upside is that we’re not ableist
Or that’s what the children report
But Dollmer is blitzen the yard now
Her poo’s filled with parts of all sorts
If gently bidding S.H. adieu
Makes Gal Gadot an ableist,
Then her hypersensitive critics
Are nothing if not labelists.
Note: S.H. stands for the late, great physicist, Dr. Stephen Hawking.
