Not sure if this would work without the picture. And of course Miss Muffet would be a blonde bimbo. LOL
I sense a couple of meanings in the last line. Tank could refer to her mind or to her--forget it. :-)

What a wonderfully creative piece you have concocted for this funny nonsense poem writing contest. The artwork above that you have chosen is perfect. Good luck in the contest and God bless!

Good poem with a good picture to make it complete. So little miss Muppet is quite a little lady. Good story told with a small amount of words, being old enough to know she is adopted.

I like the imagery your lines and picture provide, but I have an issue:

"Even you will deduce
in her tank there's no juice "

The second line is so abstract that I don't understand what it's referring to. You set up an image of puppets, then suggest machinery; I literally can't comprehend what the line about juice is literally referring to. I think a rewrite should be done on that line to clear it up.

You also lack proper punctuation on the final line's ending word. Either another exclamation or question mark is appropriate; not a period.

For the most part, you hit the humor well; that obscure phrasing, however, diminishes the punch line and weakens the piece as a whole.

    You're a tough reviewer, it's a metaphor for she has a brain, but nothing in it! Do you not use metaphors?

    I do.

This is funny. I had Raggedy Ann and Andy when I was a child. It must have been the candy heart sew into each of their chests that made them adopt.

Cute funny nonsense poem entry. I was going to mention that line five doesn't really fit with the poem, but it is supposed to be nonsensical so it works.

    Thanks for the review, line 5 does if you think about it!

Cute poem. Easily rhymes and has good tempo. Poor Miss Muppet kinda looks like Barbie. None of the lines seemed 'forced'. Nice work.

O.K. Funny, yes. Nonsense, pretty much. I guess she was dumber than dirt, to start with. Not much else to say. But must comply with computer. Have a healthy New Year.
