If I Were An Elephant

If I were an elephant:

I would set the record straight 
And squash that big fat lie. I'm 
not scared of an little ole mouse.
It's fleas that scare the HELL of me!

Very funny and witty, Alexis. I was laughing soooo hard! This is super sharp humor, cut-the-cheese laughing disease funny. You got your humor chops working real well. A 7-up w/lots of fizz to make you dizzy. Love the poem, it was a great write. Much love to you.
