The snowman walked in the familiar snow for

  • The snowman walked in the familiar snow for hours trying to remember how he got here. He remembered the laughter of children and their little hands with so much hope, faith, & love
  • that it made him sick. Every year, kids sang Frosty to life against his will. Not this year, they wouldn't. Though his resolve was tested by the promise of a corncob pipe filled
  • Canned Snow (the Snowman version of Whip-Its), Frosty had to hold fast. The freakin' Freeze-Thaw process was eating away at him mentally, too. That damned cartioon 'boing-boing'
  • sound rang in his ears. Frosty the snow man was melting. But as his watery essence trickled away his consciousness remained intact. He poured down the sewer drain near 4th and
  • Main where a rat drank him. Frosty the Snow Man became Frosty the Ratman. He was cold as ice, but now had the freedom to run around town in all seasons, luring little children
  • into the sewers to feed him cheese and cookie crumbs, while he puffed on his corncob pipe. Frosty the Ratman scampered after them, with a broomstick in his hand.
  • "Frosty the Ratman was rolly polly rodent, with a corncob pipe, a mangy coat, and two beady black eyes." His nemesis turgid stoat was hot on his tail as he skurried along the sewer
  • & sang, "Frosty the lamprey was a parasitic soul, an eel-like fish with a sucker mouth & no eyes." Ratman fell & Stoat took the lead of the Change the Lyrics to "Frosty" Sewer Race
  • which she then belted out for all to hear: "Frosty the ninja turtle, took over after Donatello's demise. With broom stick strong and pipe quite long he beat up all bad guys". Then
  • she shut up. The ice cream truck blew up. Mary Poppins jumped off the 50th floor of the building without an umbrella. It was quiet. The sun dropped out of sight. Goodnight.

    So ends the icy tail of Frosty the Ratman. So don't push it kiddies. When a snowman says no, he means no.
