This witty animal 5-7-5, He Hogs the Blankets, has the right set up and finds the word play that makes this piece sow funny.

Very funny poem, boar and hog in the same line of work or of the world. "Please don't take me for grunted". Thank you for sharing and good luck with the contest.

This is a good entry for the Witty animal 5-7-5 writing prompt. Hogs do have their own personalities. I hope this poem does well in the contest. Best of luck to you.

Lol, nice play on words at end of your third line. At first my mind read misspelling until I realized I was smiling. Also, good choice of animal. Hogs don't get represented enough on these.

A very strong contender.

Oh, groan! That's so funny, in a dad-joke kind of way! I thought I'd picked the one that had my vote, but now ... Loving this!
Well done. Best of luck in the contest,
Blessings,
Deb

    Those male chauvinist pigs take us women for grunted too often! They should take us out swining and dining more often.
    Thank you so much for your vote of confidence in my offering to the contest.

You have a clever use of words here. "But he's such a boar" is a fitting last line, it sums up the first two. Excellent use of words that captures the image of the bovine. Best wishes for the contest.

LOL. Still chuckling--and you used the title to extend/explain the meaning of the poem. Great giggle! Keep writing as humour is not easy in this world of troubles.

Poem and artwork make a dynamite pair. You have made excellent use of your seventeen syllables in this descriptive, comical, clever piece--including the pun.
