Confessions Of An Oompa Loompa
Confessions From An Oompa Loompa, Poetry
I was born to be an Oompa Loompa! I had so much fun working in Willy Wonka's Chocolate Factory! And, naturally, I thought that (as one of Mr. Wonka's famed employees), I would have had the liberty of dipping into as many gum-drops, gummy bears, jelly beans, and lollipops as I pleased! Why wouldn’t I?
Confessions Of An Oompa Loompa
My Chocolate Career
I use to be
a hard-working
Oompa Loompa,
in Willy Wonka's
Factory,
Until the day
that I got fired,
due to my job
performance
being unsatisfactory!
Sealing My Fate
Willy Wonka noticed
that his candy
was disappearing,
at an ever
alarming rate;
Then, when he saw
the chocolate running
down my mouth,
that sort of
sealed my fate.
Willy Wonka
Yes, I ate some
of Willy Wonka's
precious candy,
but I meant
no lasting harm;
Peculiar how missing
a few gumdrops,
here and there,
made stingy, Mr. Wonka lose
all of his charismatic charm!
All You Can Eat
Never would I have become
an Oompa Loompa,
if I had known that
the candy would not
have been "all you can eat";
After all, I dyed my skin
permanently green,
anticipating the ongoing
rewards, of shoveling down
my throat, treat after treat!
Santa Claus
Now that I am no longer
an Oompa Loompa,
but still fashion
the color of a bright,
fluorescent, green,
A frolicsome elf,
will be my next career move,
since Santa Claus
has lots of candy, (fresh in stock!),
from what I have peeked in,
and clearly seen!

Now that I am permanently holographic lime-green, I will see you all during the Christmas season as an elf. I will make my rounds to each of your houses, and help myself to all of your candy canes which decorate your beautiful Christmas trees. If you have any chocolate laying around, it will be mine, too. Merry Christmas!
Oompa Loompa!
