For the the 'Out on a Lim' Poetry Contest of Joseph May

___________________________________________________________________________

A zoo baboon people called Mildred kept holding her hand out to get fed. When she showed her behind, I then wished I were blind. It was hideous, bulbous and red.

LOL! Look away! (no relation to the baboon, my gma was Mildred. She rolled her long hair upon her head, had a cute voice and giggle.)

Beautiful limerick. Andrea, I can so well relate with your feeling. Baboons have a bulbous, red repulsive back..... :)

I looked up why the butts are red. It's the female who is worse. Her red rear end attracts males when she is fertile. hahaha.
