    'The Llama' by Ogden Nash:
    The one-l lama,
    He's a priest.
    The two-l llama,
    He's a beast.
    And I will bet
    A silk pajama
    There isn't any
    Three-l lllama.

      Nice! I figured out the gimmick but just couldn't quite crack everything. Fun solve though! 🌋

        Cute! Took me a little bit to disentangle everything, but it's well worth it.

          I totally didn't get it the mechanic without cheating, but it's still really fun :)
