RDP Monday: ship-shape

Written for RDP, where sgeoil asks us
 to get creative with the word “ship-shape”.
Thanks, Heather! Here’s where the prompt took me.

Happy Monday, my peeps! Can you quickly say this tongue twister even once?

“If a ship-shaped ship shop stocks
six ship-shaped shop-soiled ships,
how many ship-shaped shop-soiled ships

would six ship-shaped ship shops stock?”
