Some Elephants Are Just Mean

Wet from my shower with no chance to groom 
I addressed the elephant in the room
Why so long a trunk
He said like your junk
It just can't be any shorter I assume

I tried to soften, the bite of his critique
By attempting to turn the other cheek
Like my cat rose
I booped his nose
He knocked me into the middle of next week!
