I began my journey from galaxy Mildorn,<\/p>\n
Their purple beaches had been on my list\u00a0far too long,<\/p>\n
but I paid the price with boil-ridden skin<\/p>\n
for not carrying JellyProtect to fight its Neuar sun.<\/p>\n
I continued my journey, albeit tad painfully,<\/p>\n
Prodding along to the Meteor County,<\/p>\n
The showers were spectacular, the view magnificent,<\/p>\n
Glad I did it, it sure was fun!<\/p>\n
Next was the luxurious Sentare for me,<\/p>\n
Sipping on Shremark Pina coladas for free,<\/p>\n
Swimming with the giant rasterfoons,<\/p>\n
The gorgeous yellow ocean reflecting nine hundred and twenty six moons.<\/p>\n
En route to Dexark, I was unfortunately swindled,<\/p>\n
By a swine so gross and heavily wrinkled,<\/p>\n
He took away everything save my cretamin rolls,<\/p>\n
And made a swift exit through a hidden black hole.<\/p>\n
With resources dwindled, I returned, cutting my trip short,<\/p>\n
Which was just as well, for I was in for a shock.<\/p>\n
The colony I had built for my college project,<\/p>\n
A part of it had become completely wrecked.<\/p>\n
It had an infestation, my, it had grown!<\/p>\n
Ugh! Humans! I should have known!<\/p>\n
Now I have to work on my planet all over again,<\/p>\n
Clean up, rebuild, add more trees and some fresh rain.<\/p>\n
Yawn! I’ll do it tomorrow, I’m too tired today,<\/p>\n
Let the pesky pests live one more day.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
