Well, I thought I'd let you guys read my trippy poem and tell me what you think. It's supposed to weird and trippy, so keep that in mind. :)

Earth Battles the Pink Robots.

Hurdling through space on a giant rock

Falling in time to the rhyme of a clock.

Ahead their destination they see and smile

That melancholy rock where they’re always riled.

A brand-new planet to overpower and rule

To spread their reign of terror, so icy cool.

Invading the blue sphere to rule like kings

Falling all in like light pink rings…

Circle, circle, square and square

Falling from the midnight air.

Pink robots coming to invade

As the night begins to fade.

Don’t bother to run and don’t bother to hide

They catch up in robot stride.

Circle, circle, square and square

To fight them off, who will dare?

Winter wind blows through the trees

Bringing people to their knees.

Church bells in the distance sound

Calling angels to the ground.

Like bees in spring they plan and coordinate

Finding the best way to control and dominate.

Pink flamingos flapping their wings

What tales of destruction their flapping brings…

Circle, circle, square and square

Hiding in the robot’s lair.

Pink robots take over Earth

Just in time for a new morning’s birth.

Don’t bother to shout and don’t bother to scream

Robots are everywhere like a pink fuzzy dream.

Circle, circle, square and square

Just how well will they fare?

A flash of brass in the tall land grass

A heavy mass, loud and crass.

An army group sent to take out robots

But just how, of that they know not.

Cracks of thunder, the sound of a gun

Bullets ricochet off and into the sun.

Angry robots stomp and moan

As sore people below grunt and groan…

Circle, circle, square and square

Dragging people by the hair.

Invincible robots stomp about

As people below scream and shout.

Don’t bother to figure and don’t bother to reason

With angry pink robots in the time of their season.

Circle, circle, square and square

To take on the one, do they dare?

Seeking refuge in a run-down village

Watching the others plunder and pillage.

Yoshi hides from the pink robot scare

Knowing she can beat them if she dare.

Robots are hypnotized by the sound of her song

Like addicts flock to a newly lit bong.

Yoshi musters the courage to sing

And let her voice across the whole world ring…

Circle, circle, square and square

Pink robots in a giant rock’s care.

Robots in an ignorance that is bliss

Unaware that their power is about to slip.

Don’t bother to warn them, don’t bother to try

Stupid robots joyous on the day they’re to die.

Circle, circle, square and square

To hear Yoshi’s song, can they bear?

Approaching a cluster of robots giant and pink

Yoshi barely has enough time to think.

They stop and stare as her knees begin to sink

“Leave my planet at once! Leave or I’ll sing!”

They stare then laugh: “Ha! What a bold scenario you cast!

“You have not but a reflection of a face in finely polished glass!”

Yoshi takes a breath, takes it in and holds it deep

Then bellows a song proud and long making the world weep.

Circles and squares falling apart

Leaving nothing but a palpitating heart.

For the space rock by which they came they make a mad dash

Leaving behind the planet where they left their red rash.

Forever they’ll feel that planet biting through and screaming

As it spins happily in orbit, in sunlight gleaming.

Pink robots falling once again through time

Keeping an ethereal style of ancient rhyme.

 
Although it sounded nothing like it, that was obviously based on the song Yoshimi battles the Pink Robots, right?

 
I do like it, but the 'circle circle square square' part kinda felt like you had nothing better to rhyme. I dunno.. I don't like squares as a word.

I got the idea from that Flaming Lips album cover, yes, but I didn't listen to the song. The 30 second preview on iTunes was so lame, I listened to about 10 seconds.
