In the Monkey House

Monkeyshine faces
Swinging from ropes in cages
Mocking us, those creeps!
  Hey! Let's do something silly:
  Let's lie down and go to sleep!

Thanks a bunch!!---and not a bad write for someone who can't view the monkey house, b/c he's usually in the (wife's) doghouse!! LOL. What can I do? At any rate, thanks again for the support! Best wishes, Gershon
