"There once was a Heep-heep from Zrak
Who found himself in a crack
The harder he tried
To remove his backside
The deeper he sank and that's that!"
―The poem[1]
A Heep-heep

A Heep-heep

"There once was a Heep-heep from Zrak" was a poem. It referred to a Heep-heep—a creature from Zrak that possessed four legs and a reptilian head—that became stuck in a crack, and the more it tried to escape, the more it got stuck.[1]

Behind the scenes

The Heep-heep was introduced in a poem in Monsters and Aliens from George Lucas, a book published in 1993.[1] Lucasfilm employee Leland Chee, who maintains the Holocron continuity database, has indicated that information contained in the book is non-canonical.[2]
