[with Mingle2's permission - (I hope!) - this is a re-working of an earlier item].

I once kept a crab as a pet
but I hadn’t quite named it yet.
I wished to teach it how to speak
or at least deliver a squeak.

The result was a rapid chat
in which I asked, “do you in fact,
locomote sideways or backwards?”
Said it, “OBVIOUSLY FORWARDS!”

I decided to christen it
Progress.
