Slamina
Listen to Colin ...
Last night I drew an Ooragnak,
And then an Effarig,
And then a Regit and a Noil,
And then a nice Nobbig.
And then I drew an Olaffub,
And then a Nilognap,
And then I drew a cute Adnap,
And then a sweet Torrap.
And then I drew a Nacilep,
And then a Rotagilla,
And then I drew an Allirog,
(That backwards spells Gorilla.)
