Wow! What an image that creates, an ass that laughs. How does that play out exactly? IO would actually pay money to see that. What would it sound like? If I stood too close what would it smell like? I don't think I would like to find that out, so I will pass on that prospect. LOL.

Hopefully the play on words, meaning laughing gas, came through.

It did, I just decided to make my own little joke.

Haaaaaaaaahahaha - Oh man, I would NOT want to be the one judging this contest. I have read some really great six-word poems, and Bill - this is among them. Very cute, and charming artwork you chose - kudos to the artist!

Lol. Would that work? I get the word play about the "laughing gas." But this other seems like it may be harder to administer especially on a walrus. The picture is cute - I wonder which came first the poem or the picture/

This speaks the need of laugh in humourless living; whoever he is or wherever he lives and whatever the state of living, every humourless person should need laugh; nice explanation; I liked.

This is a good use of words considering the limit of six words. I have never really thought about walruses being without a sense of humor. I guess I never really thought about walruses. Best Wishes in the contest.

Walruses have a dry sense of humor generally.

Hi Bill after looking at the sad looking picture and reading your six words
No wonder the walrus look in awe and feel glad they aren't like the carton character getting swallowed up by ( a whale) and the jack ass having a good laugh

I'm beginning to see a pattern here. The persona of a walrus appears in your poems and a story where I was captured by the character. I don't know how this image got started but its clever use is unique.

I do ten pieces on each animal. When I finish walrus World 10, I'll go to another critter. Got a favorite. Ive already done horses, flies, spiders, octopi, sloth, skunks, caterpillars, and ducks.

reply by pbomar1115 on 07-Nov-2017

That's very creative idea, Bill. I'm sorry, but I have no favorite. I wish you continued success with the critter theme.
