Rhinoceros by Albrect Durer

Lonely Rhino

The rhino was lonely
He did not want to talk to anyone
But he was lonely
He wanted company to be around
No one wanted to be around him
He felt lost and lonely
No one liked him
He decided to talk to someone
He was shot and killed the next minute
He is a rhino not a human
Rhinos don't talk either


The Visitation by Albrect Durer


House built by a wife

He wanted a house
I said I would build one for him
I started building and he said that the house was too small
He said that he wanted a mansion
I told him that a small house is good enough
He said that he would leave me
I told him go ahead
I'll live here without you anyway
He took all the money with him
I now have a partially built house
And no warmth to sleep next to.
