Dammit!
I had this written on Thursday and then forgot to publish it as I wasn’t around on Friday. Anyway, only 3 days late eh? I can’t wait to see what the others come up with for this one, the first thing I thought of when I saw the photo was that old video game ‘Rampage’.
‘Well Really’ said the Elephant
‘Its really rather relevant.
I’m find it quite abhorent
that He has done this thing.’
Said Tiger ‘Listen Elephant’
‘Your anger is quite dominant
You’re scaring all the ruminants
and the birds refuse to sing.’
‘We’ll sort out this predicament.
We’ll find the naughty miscreant
Don’t worry my dear Elephant
Don’t worry bout a thing.’
So the Tiger and the Elephant
Went hunting for the miscreant
Keeping rather observant
Through the jungle they did run.
They found him sitting nonchalant
Among the ruins of what he’d wrought
His manner seemed quite jubilant
Despite what he had done.
‘Gorilla’ began Elephant
‘This thing is quite significant.
You can’t ignore the consequence
There’s nowhere you can run.’
Gorilla became petulant
And not so much exuberant
‘But what of my exfoliant?
My skin will get too rough!’
Tiger growled and Elephant
Trumpeted dissonant.
Gorilla flinched and hesitant(ly)
Began to pack his stuff.
‘So I stole a couple of bananas’ he said. ‘Big deal.’
