Analysis of A hacked imagination



Dunncy the Camel looked me dead in the eyes, laughing he sat up, why start with such lies.

Giggled he did, I was amused, then filled with fury, he balanced on one knee, this is outrageous, this can't be funny.

I fed him grass daily, this was always enough, smirking he  danced around, this is silly, stop making stuff up.

Stop it this minute, you better behave yourself, come boy, drink water, he began to laugh harder.

Normally he would jump rope, never without a slap, I find this fascinating, he's now doing a cartwheel, with my cap.

I told you ,don't dare believe, this is some kind of trap.

I've just about had It Dunncy, you're a Camel, of course not, "you cannot  act"! This is not a script, and that is a fact.
No more crazy stunt, he looked at me and grunt.

Why are u messing with my day, he smiled, "Are you sure you want to hear me say".
