monkey exercise

one beautifull morning, after watching the sunrise from the side of the river, i was sitting on the roof of my palace, excercising. suddenly i became aware that a monkey was sitting not far away, watching me. so i made some jump-throughs, forwardbends and backdrops, trying to look as beatifull as i could and then i even performed a free palm-balance. but the monkey looked more and more boredom until he finally turned away, jumped from roof to roof and disappeared. some other day i was exercising on the roof when another monkey appeared. he was sitting less then four feet away from me, but he didn't even look into my derection once. what is the point, i thought, and continued my exercises. then i was exercising some day on the rooftop when i suddenly heard somebody shouting out loudly. i opened my eyes and saw the keeper of my palace, jumping from rooftop to rooftop, wielding a long stick and chasing a monkey.
