The strong, ' gentlemanly', yet vain, Peter Perfect
Was the archetypal racer. He drove the high tech,
Slick, Turbo Terrific, which regularly fell
To pieces shortly after he praised it..oh well!
Penelope Pitstop was the cute pin up girl.
Amongst that vain, ghoulish, motley crew,a rare pearl:
Driving so competently in her Compact Pussy
Cat; putting on lipstick to look even more pretty.
And last, (and yes least!)Dick Dastardly and Muttley:
In their fast, purple, rocket - powered Mean Machine.
It's mind boggling gadgetry was deployed by cads:
The sly, aforementioned villains, to cheat like mad
Yet it never managed to help them win a race;
Which served them right because they had no sporting grace.
The overall winners were the primitive Slag Brothers:
Not bad at all; given the technical prowess of others.
Yet those schemers Dastardly and Muttley were far from finished,
As they featured in a new show in which they chase a pigeon...
And everything like your tremendous poem was brilliant the characters, their voices and the artwork layout for every car. Thanks again.
Great tie up ending to your fine tribute trilogy Dominic. And I can always remember watching as a kid this great cartoon Dastardley and Muttely never won. Morals at work I suppose. A great poem trilogy and another 10+. Thanks again and take care.
