Billy the Penguin Adds Insult To Injury

Billy the penguin went to the dentist 
because he didn't take care of his teeth, 
All brown and yellow like a fungal growth on your feet! 
Billy was always snappy and chatty, 
he loved to interrupt, 
Now he felt punished after years of making 
the tooth fairy bankrupt. 
Inside the waiting room the tick tock 
of the clock got louder and louder, 
Each passing second was a pitiful reminder 
that Billy was going to face a life without gnashers
And oh how he loved his mother's rashers.
He sobbed.
The dentist called his name.
With each mortal footstep an imprint of shame and pain 
ohhhhh Billy had no one else to blame.
