The Ballad of the Astronaut Squirrel
There once was a squirrel with some very big dreams,
He wanted to become an astronaut it seems.
To fly so high, right past the stars,
And get away from all those dangerous cars.
His parents told him he could do it,
As long as he trained, and got right to it!
He ate good food all the time,
And he never once committed a crime.
The squirrel trained all day, every day,
He never had any time to play.
Then the day came when it was time to run,
The squirrel had finished its training, it was done.
He ran all the way to NASA,
I don't think he ever ran fasta!
When he got there he talked to the man in charge,
He told him about his dreams, not knowing they were so large.
The man told him without a lick of compassion,
That having a squirrel on the team was not the NASA fashion.
And with that he sent the squirrel on his way,
This man didn't have any time to play.
The squirrel went home, confused and sad.
What about being a squirrel was so bad?
To deep in his thoughts to watch where he was going,
That he was on a road, he had no way of knowing.
At that moment a car came speeding by,
Not giving the squirrel enough time to squeak before he died.
I wrote it for English class, I thought I might as well post it.

That squirrel has some crappy luck.
But I liked it.

I loved it. There were a few steps out of rhythm but it was very Seuss-like. You should draw some panels to go with it.

He should survive the car accident and then threaten to sue nasa. Since their funding sucks they decide to just let him go into space. Once there, there's a catastrophic accident and the only thing the astronauts have to eat is the squirrel. He goes down in history as a hero. That tasted like chicken.
