Angry Jelly Doughnuts and Tiny Shelled Horses

Eohippus
Craving sweet
Went foraging
For treats to eat

Stumbling on
A doughnut filled
With jelly
E. was quickly killed

In the early
Eocene
The pastry bled
That wasn’t mean

And jelly doughnuts
Famously
Invented field
Artillery

In self-defense
Fierce breakfast courses
Shelled and felled
Those tiny horses

Mother Nature
Barely blinked
When Eohippus
Went extinct

But doughnuts mourned
What went away
And that’s why most
Have holes today
