Daily Dime: Hamster Story

How one becomes eighteen
No one knows.
Rather, the few who know,
Know of the Inbred Hamster.

One holiday, Christmas,
To be exact,
A mother purchased for her daughter
A hamster "boy."

The shop lied, and the hamster
Was a boy neither in fact or deed.
Indeed, the hamster was
Pregnant, in fact, eighteen others, much like her.

How, from one to one,
Inbred become?
This tale contains
The answer to all..

Christmas morning,
Come to see,
Eighteen more,
Just like she.

The mother of the human child,
Quite alarmed,
Placed a call with the vendor for the
Hamster farm.

"Hold onto them for nine weeks only,
So that they can be mature,"
Except they didn't tell the human mother
To keep the children's sexes lonely.

One to eighteen,
Eighteen to thirty six,
The hamster children
Replicating biblically.

Soon, a child is born.
A hamster child quite different,
With parents brother an sister both
Affecting its disposition.

This special hamster,
Inbred like few others,
Possessed a scream quite fearsome,
To keep the others away.

Soon, the hamster left
His home,
Adventures to complete
Dressed in punk, Santa, and easter rabbit motif.

The hamster gained popularity
A legend in his own time,
And without that inbred hamster,
this thing wouldn't rhyme... sometimes.

You really should make a shirt. Maybe you can put a condensed version of "this" on the back of it and the graphic on the front. Zazzle.com has some good deals on custom tees.
