A Vision of Paradise

Of all the things upon this earth I’d never want to be a horse ‘Cos first of all, how DO they sleep when standing on their hooves, of course Another creature I would shun is lazy, smelly, weighs a ton Flies buzz an inch from her dull eyes You guessed a cow? ~ ‘twas no surprise And finally, to top things off I never want to be a chimp I need respect, I’m not a clown na-NA, na-NA, na-NA na-Na So, if you smile when I sit down ~ I’ll turn my wrong end upside down ~ Iambic Tetrameter ~

What do you mean 'shift of focus,' Mike. Did you put an extra letter in 'shift?' lol. ~ Same old Gershon
