Good thing, while in Oz,

Dorothy didn’t go swimming.

Freak monkeys galore.

🤣 I love it! The Wicked Witch’s aquatic contingent!

Yeah not many people know this, but in the unabridged version of the book Dorothy and Toto end up in the desert, chased by sand-monkeys (like sandworms, but with the torso and head of a monkey.) Monkeys are everywhere in that world.

And don't even get me started on the jungle-monkeys--which you'd expect to be just a normal monkey, right? Wrong. They're like a cross between a monkey and Bulbasaur. It's weird 🤷‍♂️

Wow, I gotta pick up a copy of that. I love a hybrid monkey universe. I hope they have hippo monkeys!

No mermaid is an island made

A peninsular monkey trade-off

To disguise a fish for a succulent dish

That lays on a table unable to surprise.

😅It looks plenty surprising to me, but maybe you eat weird stuff a lot😂

It’s all organic.

Honeygloom's avatar

Haha, nothing is organic. Our world is mostly plastic now.

Organic juice in plastic.

Ah the irony😂

P.T. made his fortune duping gullible people- not unlike some people living today...

Sad but true, if only we taught critical thinking skills in school…

Mythological

Man-made abomination

Our monstrous offspring

Very deep, love the idea that we’re sort of destined to birth monsters.
