One night, an Elephant and a Donkey found themselves roommates in Heaven.
“Fancy meeting you here,” they both stuttered in surprise and dismay.
“Oh Universe, how will I sleep with him stomping around like he owns everything–like he’s a Colossus?” thought the Donkey.
“Oh Jesus, how will I sleep with his constant braying about things of unimportance?” thought the Elephant.
They smiled at each other nervously.
And, as they looked around at the white, small room with no doors nor windows, they realized they might not be in Heaven after all.
