What Mountain of Strength

the
mighty mouse
who
dons
the
red cape
oh

who
frightens
the
teary-eyed
gray elephant

Celibate Elephant

there once was a coy elephant
who decided to be celibate
never took a twirl
with his favorite girl
just for the hell of it

When

When there are no thoughts
When there is Naked Silence
Then look into the Eyes of an Elephant.

I’m fascinated  
by all elephant wisdom 
watching a movie
they walked through a hotel hall 
as quietly as the ghosts...

Literal

That's not my elephant!
It's spaghetti on a spoon!
Ella held back tears.
2nd graders can be so cruel,
just like the bill of rights!

Elephant

I am an elephant,
I can't forget
and what I can't forget
is gone from me,
will not return
and still I yearn
for what I can't forget.

If you mix an Elephant and a Donkey
you will come up with a barrel full of Monkeys
holding guns and bibles
chanting the Zionists songs

Achoo-Oo-Eww

I’d hate to be a pachyderm,
My schnozzle such a wacky worm
That though I willed it slack or firm,
Each sneeze would really pack a squirm!

Cross an elephant with a rhino
And create a noteworthy combo 
But all are confused
As the name to be used
For this mix is an el-eph-i-no

As my memory gives me fits,
an elephant never forgets.
It should come as no surprise
that a head of such huge size
holds a hundred gigabits.

Elephant Droppings

McConnell was out stabbing backs
When Donald Trump fell off the tracks
400 PER WEEK?
How dare Donald speak -
Have the rich agreed to pay tax?

Elephant-like chests
On green-grey hillock
Grass grows like hair-crests  
Scenes seem idyllic
A bridge, built like nests
Art on acrylic...???

Mitch McConnell just missed the boat
His elephant said - and I quote:
"It seems rather clear
The suckers are here
Giving Amy McGrath the vote!"

A Lady just bought the last one

and I haven’t ordered any more

The donkey

And the elephant

The donkey us tough and slow in thought 

The elephant never forgets

can their struggle

Teach us something?

The Elephant and the Mouse

The elephant told the mouse
'I am sick of your grouse'
The mouse wagged its tail
Brought a bunch of cat's mail
'Look! all's written to your spouse'.

Premium Member Fly vs Elephant

It takes little time to unzip a fly.
It's quickly done, on the first try. 
But you'll wonder where your life all went
if you unbutton an elephant.

Pest Aside

Political standards are falling
To a point some say is appalling
The Elephant said:
"You've got to wear red
And knock on their door, "Aphid calling"!

Nigeria

Black elephant in the sun
As the biblical tower of Babel
Hordes of twisted tongues
Infest width, breadth
From Ajegunle slums
To the plateaus of Jos!
