Balookays

On planet Abotoxin,
there are the balookays,
they look like fins of dead manta rays,
they are the balookays.

Balookays are small,
the size of a base ball,
if you are an eagle,
with the pathetic call.

Oh the plants balookays grow,
they do it in eight feet of snow,
you can grow radishes from trees and apples from the ground,
or are these plants just mixed around?

Balookays wear hilarious hats,
the ones that are made of living cats,
and if you are allergic, wear a gnat!

Balookays master space flight,
enough to be able to flight,
with ships of 100 percent stone.

Balookays have great pets,
they keep tigers without fret,
and they plan to domesticate widgeons yet,
if they have the skill.

A balookay has 2 antennae,
enough to donate to a stingray,
sorry but I don't have any way
to have a word that rhymes with antennae.

So that wraps it up with balookays,
the ones that look like dead manta rays
and the one with a couple of antennaes,
so please if you want one, they don't exist.
