Composed for the "Ridiculous Comparisons" contest sponsored by Miranda Hawley.
Shall I compare thee to an elephant? Thou art a thousand times more relevant. 'Tis not from floppy ear doth ardor rise, Nor yet shall sinuous trunk knot love’s sweet ties; And if thou can’t stampede across the plains, Nor deftly roll in mud when monsoon rains, I find my heart shall hold here little lack, As pachyderm thou aren’t in love’s soft sack.
