Tried to parachute using his hat.

Folks below looked so small

As he started to fall,

Then got bigger and bigger and SPLAT!

Was terribly fond of small gherkins.

He ate ninety three

And pickled his internal workings.

A circus performer named Brian

Once smiled as he rode on a lion.

They came back from the ride,

But with Brian inside,

And the smile on the face of the lion.
