Flying Pig Behind the Closet Door

The purple portly pig crouched behind the closet door.
He looked like a giant blob and his wings were very sore.

He was as slow as a fat hippo.
His wings were so big, he started to tippo.

The purple pig looked like a giant grape.
The really fat pig was very out of shape.

The purple portly pig crouched behind the closet door.
He finally got out and started to soar.
