A Mammoth Problem
It’s true that mammoths do find emails tricky.
They find the same with letters, pen-and-inked.
It’s not that they can’t spell or type for toffee -
the problem is that mammoths are extinct.
They find the same with letters, pen-and-inked.
It’s not that they can’t spell or type for toffee -
the problem is that mammoths are extinct.
