 Biologists are prone1 to sniff2
At hybrids3 like the Hyppogriff.
In evolution's plan, they say,
There is no place for such as they.
A horse with wings could not have more
Than two legs, and this beast had four.
Well, I for one am glad to waive4
Two of his legs, his wings to save.
I'd even sell my auto—if
I had one—for a Hyppogriff.
