Stick Your Neck Out for Love (From Color Me With Hugs), by Doodleslice 2016

I’ve never been on a safari
Unless you count the car kind
Next to the amusement park
Where they’d warn you
About baboons
How they’d fuck up your vinyl roof
Don’t even
With a ragtop

Yes, a vinyl roof
It was a thing
Look it up
I don’t have time to explain everything
I’ve got to pack
But I’ll never go
Even the zoo is a hassle

Noble
Fierce
Deadly
All reduced to cute
On Instagram
But I love them cute
So cute

Boop

Look at me
I’m a baboon
Tearing up rooftops
In the comments

Boop Boop Boop

Danger is adorable
