It’s Tocktober!

If it’s a bad day, or even a bad week,
There is some comfort you can seek.
To gaze upon a fluffy cheek
Will cheer you up when you feel bleak.

the back end of an alpaca, showing its fluffy light brown tail
And now for something completely different: A llama with three buttocks.

The humble buttock, you will find
Is Nature’s method to remind
Us all to relax and unwind
And never mind if we fall behind.

a dark grey rabbit reclines on its belly with its tail toward you
75% floof, 25% ‘tocks.

And soon, thanks to this tiny twerker
You’re feeling calm and less berzerker.
Just why do ‘tocks make us feel perkier?
Don’t ask me why; I only work ‘ere.

No need to point out the tail, it points for itself.
