Internet Challenges

Ma tried the ice bucket with goat in tow,
Got kicked, soaked, and screamed “OH NO!”
Pa danced the floss and threw out his back,
Now his spine clicks like a busted track.
Cousin Lou ate cinnamon by the spoon,
Coughed so hard he saw the moon.
Aunt May did planks with pigs on her rear,
Set a world record–then lost her veneer.
Uncle Jeb tried the bottle cap spin,
Knocked over the stove and scorched his shin.
The preacher tried that viral slap,
But missed and baptized his own kneecap.
We filmed a TikTok in the chicken pen,
Now hens want royalties and a signing pen.
Granny tried yoga with a watermelon,
Rolled clean off the porch and yelled, “I’m rebelling!”
We tried to go viral with grace and flair,
But the cow licked the camera and glared at air.
So now we watch and laugh instead,
Less risk of fame, more chance of bread.
