Horton Hears A What?

I sit and cringe at what I see
They're selling movies on TV
Producers do to Dr. Seuss
What they would not to Mother Goose
They strip a story of its rhyme
The change the plot, they change the time
And think that they have done so well
But I cannot ignore the smell
Reviews are just one single word
A sentence, whole, is never heard.
I will not watch it in a seat
I will not watch it on my feet
I will not watch it with Jim Carrey
(I would not, even with Dave Barry)
I will not watch it on a screen
In my house it will not be seen
If this is what they do to Ted,
I wish they would just leave him dead.

Why run around sprinkling holy water?
There's an ocean inside you
And when you're ready,
You'll drink.
