So, I just watched Game of Thrones.

Longcat is long, but that wasn’t always the case
For when he was born, he was barely a face
His body looked shrunk; he was really quite small
Longcat was not very long at all
The doctors all worried he may never grow
His parents were sad and hoped that wasn’t so
But as he got older, his length did not increase
And when at the playground, the children would tease
Saying: “Longcat’s not long. He’s short as can be!
I’ve got hairs on my head that are longer than he!”
The words that were muttered made Longcat quite sad
He prayed to be longer, if only a tad
Determined to grow, he took matters in his own paws
He tried all manner of things to help his lengthy cause
He stretched and pulled and took vitamins by the pound
He tied weights to his legs and dangled high above the ground
But nothing was working, he was out of get-long schemes
He had almost abandoned all of his get-long dreams
But while taking a walk, with his head hanging low
He noticed a something that might make him grow
It looked old and spooky, like some carnival game
Inside was a genie. Zoltar was his name
It asked for his wish, with its eyes all aglow
“I wish to be long. Can you please make it so?”
Zoltar shaked and quaked and rumbled and grumbled
Longcat became startled, and to the ground he tumbled
Then he came to his senses, and looked down at his feet
But they were no further… Zoltar was a cheat!
To bed Longcat went, with the grumpiest of moans
But the magic was working, tingling in his bones
The very next day he arose with a yawn
To his surprise he was looking down at his lawn
He had grown out the sides of his home during the night
As he basked in his longness, he was filled with delight
Longcat was long! His wish had been granted!
Zoltar the Genie was indeed enchanted!
But there was a catch to the wish he received…
He grew longer and longer each time that he breathed
Looking at him before, he seemed just a speck
But to look at him now put a kink in your neckHe grew…
And grew…
And grew…
And grew…
When he would stop, no one knew.
People came from all over to see his awesome size
And many did faint, they could not believe their eyes
Longcat’s endless length was getting out of hand
He had grown much longer than he ever planned
“I’m much too long! It’s quite lonely in space.
Now I long for those days when I was barely a face.”
Longcat held his breath in the hopes to ungrow
And to his great surprise, his expansion did slow
As he proceeded to shrink his immeasurable girth
He began to de-long his long way back to Earth
He realized he could be any length he could wish
As tall as a building or as small as a fish
Once Longcat had reached a more reasonable size
He realized being too long was really unwise
“To be ‘Just long enough’ is just fine with me…
Being super long isn’t all it’s cracked up to be.”
Longcat was grateful to be any size he desired
And vowed only to lengthen to the size he required
All was right in the world; the children no longer teased
Longcat is long. And for that, he is pleased
BEST ONE YET
BY FAR
LOL OH MY GOD
My lovely followers, please follow this blog immediately!
So when I was walking around earlier, I came upon this “Little Free Library” in front of a house.
This is a “Take a book, leave a book” kind of project done by the 7 year old kid who lives in the house. Inside was a note written by the kid saying that he created the little library because “people should never not have a book with them”.
This is probably the greatest thing I’ve ever seen.
