carl s. junge
The Malay Tapir it is claimed
Is Most appropriately named
Yet stanger than its tapered shape
Is what at first seems like a cape
Of white unpon a blackish hide
Draped on its back and down each side
When this strange coat we now compare
To coats the junior tapirs wear
It's rather tame, since these young tots
Wear coats make up of stripes and spots
