Gecko crawling up the wall
Explain to me why you don’t fall?
Your digits don’t have claws attached
And yet your climbing skill’s unmatched.*
No doubt some tumbles have occurred.
I hope at least you’re well-insured.

**Why aren’t there more comics written
Starring geckos working hard
To rock a Spandex unitard,
Eating bugs and fighting crime?
Who’s in that reader demo? I’m!
