About The Poem

Another in the Old Saws Resharpened series, this time tackling an arcane saying about silk purses and sows ears. Elephant's foot doorstops and umbrella stands are commonplace, but an elephant's prepuce sowester really is one for the cabinet of curiosities.

Old Saws Resharpened III

You can't make a silk purse
Out of a sow's ear
But an elephant's prepuce
Makes a excellent sowester
