Another attempt at poetry.

ELEPHANT

This is the story of an elephant who gets lost,
This is the story of a man who forgets,
and of a boy who reads.

Deep in the forest
among the emerald leaves
and glass birds
there sits an elephant
alone.

Among the suited monkeys
and chomping alligators
he sits.

What hes doing
Where hes been
What hes seen
No one knows.

He is but a solitary elephant
among thickets
of weeds.

 I'd really want to illustrate this and maybe work on it again to improve it a bit, so I guess this is just a rough draft of something I thought about while taking a shower.
