A Boy's Torment - The Villanelle Of Ice Cream His Mama Wants Him to Eat Frozen Custard
the boy couldn't stop thinking about the ice cream
It was just so frozen and sticky, yum
But he could never forget the dream
That morning, the boy was shocked by mom stream
He had to calm himself with a lickey
the boy couldn't stop thinking about the ice cream
Mom, stead offered frozen custard seam (yucky)
He tried to focus on popsicle
But he could never forget the dream
A girl tried to distract him with a regime
Said his mind had become too picky
the boy couldn't stop thinking about the ice cream
the boy took action like a daydream
The ice cream was becoming too tricky
But he could never forget the dream
boy nosedived like a sticky ream
His mind became dangerously kicky
the boy couldn't stop thinking about the ice cream
But he could never forget the dream
