A Hippo's Life for Me!

by adewpearl


For everyone who has ever longed for a life of leisure.

Aweary,
awoken.

Bathing behemoths -
barrel-bodied creatures.

Cruising, creeping
daily dawdlers.
Enormous, easy fellows.

Grunting gargantuas -
gustatory gulpers,
harmlessly harvesting.

It's just keen
lolling lazily.
Mammoth masticators -
ne'er-do-wells.

O perfect, quiet
rainyday reflectiveness.
Ruminate -
resisting sleep.

Tranquility
underwhelms.

Vacant waddlewaders,
x-hausted -
yawning -
zoned out.





Recognized


No deep meanings. No challenges to become better people. No calls for self-examination. Just a tribute to my favorite laid-back, over-sized vegetarians.
Pays one point and 2 member cents.
