The Shoe Biting Monkey

Agh! Oh no! This monkey’s chewing on my shoe!
Help me! Help me! What should I do?
I don’t want to hurt it,
But it is hurting me.
An eye for an eye that’s what I always say.

So I bonked it on the head
But it just bit me harder.
“Hey, don’t you realise my shoes are PRADA?!”
An old lady passed by and saw my anguish.
She lifted her frail leg and gave its tail a squish.

The monkey squealed and collapsed with pain.
“Go me” the old lady said in vain.
She turned around and said
“be careful dear.
You may not be so lucky next time when I’m not here”

She turned around and I watched her go.
I watched her big hips swing to and fro.
I think that old lady was quite funky!
She saved me from the shoe eating monkey!

    I never thought I'd find a poem about a shoe biting monkey that I liked but you did it, I liked it, all the other ones I've read about those monkeys have been crap. Well done. I still don't know why I am laughing though!
