Sense Sonnet - Steamer

 The Invading Tegu

An Argentina lizard known

As the black and white tegu is

Now in the southeast U.S. zone,

Thanks to the careless pet trade biz.

This four foot long lizard can do

Wild life and crop harm in great scale.

On eggs and produce it will chew,

In its long and destructive trail.

A very hardy lizard that

Can weather cold and human threat.

It can broaden its habitat

To the whole U.S. - a good bet.

Can't blame the tegu wanting to be

Where it is put unnaturally.
