They Never Said He Was an Egg


Once upon a time,

in a kingdom perhaps a bit far off,

there was an odd skeleten man,

who liked to dance atop the wall.

 

One day he took a tumble,

it made a dreadful din!

Only a few men showed up,

but all the sure horses did.

 

They couldn't put him back,

for skeletons are complex,

and horses don't have hands.

And such is the true story of Humpty Dumpty.
