Sense Sonnet - Pumper

 About Face - LP Zoo


A white faced saki monkey who

Does not have much of a white face

Here at home in Lincoln Park Zoo,

Lilo, a female, has in place

A white stripe on each side of her

Nose and running down to her chin.

When this monkey's name did occur

Long ago humans must have been

Having a male monkey in sight.

Females like Lilo don't much mind

Having a face with not much white,

Content enough with how designed.


So when you visit and you see

A white striped face - there Lilo be.
