My human is home!
I am so ecstatic I have
Made a puddle.
I love my master;
Thus I perfume myself with
This long-dead squirrel.
I lie belly-up
In the sunshine, happier than
You ever will be…
Today I sniffed
Many dog butts - I celebrate
By kissing your face.
I sound the alarm!
Paperboy - come to kill us all -
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I sound the alarm!
Mailman Fiend - come to kill us all -
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I sound the alarm!
Meter reader - come to kill us all -
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I sound the alarm!
Garbage man - come to kill us all -
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I sound the alarm!
Neighbor's cat - come to kill us all!
Look! Look! Look! Look! Look!
I lift my leg and
Whiz on each bush. Hello, Spot -
Sniff this and weep.
How do I love thee?
The ways are numberless as
My hairs on the rug.
I hate my choke chain -
Look, world, they strangle me! Ack
Ack Ack Ack Ack Ack!
Sleeping here, my chin
On your foot - no greater bliss - well,
Maybe catching cats…
Look in my eyes and
Deny it. No human could
Love you as much I do.
The cat is not all
Bad. She fills the litter box
With Tootsie Rolls.
Dig under fence - why?
Because it's there. Because it's
There. Because it's there.
I am your best friend,
Now, always, and especially
When you are eating.
You may call them fleas,
But they are far more - I call
Them a vocation
My owners' mood is
Romantic - I lie near their
Feet. I fart a big one.
