James was looking after a lady moth
who had really bad cough
which really annoyed the sloth.

The sloth was trying to enjoy the movie,
but the lady moth's consent coughing
was driving him loony.

The movie was Titanic
and his temper was about to turn gigantic.

He told the lady moth
to either shut up
or bugger off!

As the sloth
was having an argument with the lady moth,
he found out that the James sitting next to her
was really a giant, now angry alligator.

I'm glad you two like the poem,but to be honest, I just couldn't think of anything else I could right down that would go with the flow of the poem and not involve swear words.
