Elephants
My name is Benny.
I'm awfully friendly.
I'm in this place.
Trapped and enclosed.
Every day from nine to six,
People bang on my cage with sticks.
Tall ones small ones,
Old ones too.
They all come to see me,
Benny,
But only a few.

THEY
WATCH ME.
They
look at me,
Day
after day,
They
laugh at me,
Day
after day,
They
point at me,
Day
after day,
They
throw stuff at me,
Day
after day,
They
watch me,
Day
after day.
I
want to go home,
Where
I belong,
I
want to see my son,
My
other one,
I
want to be free,
Not
caged,
Nobody
else,
Is
like me.
I
want to get flies,
Stuck
to my skin,
I
want to grow tusks,
Then
I'll look tough.
I
want to eat leaves,
I
want to see bees,
I
need some care,
So
people won't stare.
They
watch me,
Morning,
noon, night,
I
wish I could,
Just
take flight,
I
have a wife,
But
not a life.
They
watch me,
They
watch me,
They
watch me.
THE
END

CLAIRE.

They Come and Go
They come and go
They stare at me
They laugh at me
Why do they not,
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
They shout at me
They glare at me
They spit at me
Why do they not,
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!
They point at me
They just hate me
They want to get rid of me
Why do they not
JUST LEAVE ME ALONE!

Life
1. I'm here all day
Asleep
on the hay
I
hate it here
I
miss Egypt, Africa.
2. I
want to go home
To go home, to go home
To the sand and
Pyramids.
3. I stay here all day
Watching the people
Walk by me
I want to go home
You're lucky
to be human
Instead of a shower or
Horn. I
hate it here
