Critterature: A Zebraic Conundrum
...or Yipes! Stripes!
The zebra lives in Africa
On the plains of the Serengeti.
Though often foppish and vain,
He doesn't complain
'bout his place in the alphabet.
He leads a fairly innocuous life
With few, very minor, distractions,
And when tourists come to "ooh" and "aah",
He's one of the major attractions.
There is one vexing question, though,
That keeps him up at night:
Those stripes of his, are they white on black,
Or are they black on white?
