The Fly that Ate the Whos

 
 
The Fly that Ate the Whos
Horton looked toward the sound; "That's funny?", thought Horton, "There's no one around?"
Then he heard it again, just a very faint yelp, as if some tiny person were calling for help.

"Help, help, Whoville is being eaten alive by a gigantic humongous outer space fly. We've lost lives to saliva and must not all die!"

Then another voice Horton hears above the small cry, as "GET IN MY BELLY" erupts from the fly.

Horton walks away shaking his head at it all, "A person's a person no matter how small, but flies bite me all day so it's someone else's call."

Location:

Rural Gilpin County, Colorado
