Today the post-
woman brought
me an elephant.
"What's this?" I asked.
"Wondered if you
were interested in a
pet," she replied. "It
was thrown out from
a house earlier on my
round. A big guy 
lives there, named
Hannibal. Apparently
he's downsizing after
a trip across the Alps, 
& there wasn't room 
in the room for both 
him & the elephant."
