"You've read, in blogs, of superdogs (remember Rin Tin Tin?)..." The Rise and Fall of the Ant o' Nin: A Constrained "Nin"sense in Rhyme

You've read, in blogs, of superdogs 
(remember Rin Tin Tin?),
of supergirls and superwogs 
(think Kipling’s “Din! Din! Din!”),
of supermen and superflies 
(You've not? Where have you been?).
Now read the tale of superjudge
the awful Ant o’ Nin!

Although ‘Scalia’ was the name 
by which he’d thought to tame
the tsetses of judicial fame, 
he Ant o’ Nin became.
From Nin he hailed. From Nin he bailed: 
“I’ll never live with Ninnies!”
(Quite normal, this: Ant’s norm’s to dis 
all gypsys, gooks and guineas.)

Though born of men, he morphosed when, 
a callow wen of three,
he’s bitten by Formicidae 
on whom he tried to pee.
