We've gone to the zoo

Don't look for me today,
When there's nothing to do.
Don't ask me to play,
I've gone to zoo.
Not Pictured: Cleanliness

I've gone with Dear Lacey,
and Vera in tow,
And we rode on the bus
through Scarborough

We got to the gates
where some bitch made a huff,
but Lacey got in free
and she told us "tough"

The sun was shining bright,
the kids we're in their wagons
So we started in Australia
And Vera humped the Komodo Dragon
The author does not condone the act of humping the Komodo dragon
We saw through Eurasia
as best as we could
but most of the exhibits
were closed, but not for good!
Just waiting til pandas
come and take over that section
(Big stupid bears
that can't get erections)

I got to touch stingrays
Which was quite unexpected
I've always loved those creatures
even though they can be irritated


From there we went walking,
and Vera's dancing was funky
As we spied not just one,
but two types of ginger monkeys!

Then we traveled through Africa
and we saw all the creatures
and we talked and we giggled
about the baboons butt features.

We played and we frollicked,
saw creatures big and small,
from butterflies, to penguins
we saw them all
We hiked through a tundra
and read up on some mosquito lady
And introduced Lacey
to a beaver tail (yummy!)


Is this poem lame?
Yes I think it's so.
But it does make me realize
what I already know

 I love my friends
And there's nothing I'd rather do
Then to take all of them
on a trip to the zoo

Matti Paints- Subject Lacey

So today started out with a dear friend of mine, Lacey.
Like Kevin, Vera, Chris and Nathan, I also met Lacey at Statlers where we would drink and do songs at the musical theatre open mike night they do every Monday. We met when I sat down with her and Vera and complimented her singing. As time went on we became quite close and after much peer pressure from everyone else who'd done it, she finally agreed to become my canvas.
I'm noticing a theme with colour choices lately. Everyone wants green, purple and orange. I mean really people? What is it with these colour combos that everyone wants to be a part of it? It's crazy!
*end of vent*
That being said, Lacey ended up very interesting. Up until song seven the painting was going one way, and then in the last three it took a wild, radical turn and went somewhere completely different. It was a neat turn that I didn't see coming.
Her song choices were very much "A". Lots of Adele- interesting to note that she was the only person who picked more than one song by the same artist. I found that interesting.
Overall, Lacey was a very easy canvas to work with.
