Lol!

Great tip; gum in the hair can be poetic. (Just pubbed a poem about that in Highlights for Children, July 2009).

But I don’t have a cat…I think that part’s dispensable.

I saw this and thought Aristocats!
Well if your not a cat you have reason to despair,
Cause everyone wants to be a cat!!

Meow Pft Pft Pft!!

I’m sure this is how Morrissey got started.

Alas,
Oh gentle furry creature.

This ooze upon my brow,
Leads me to sing of justice,
Of which there is none.

And of my own despair?
Truly, it is gum.

That cat scares me…

Life sometimes sucks…
But I know a chicken that clucks.
Oh, wait, it doesn’t cluck, but I saw it talk.
But I have never seen the chicken walk…
Maybe the chicken only wants to run?
I just realized I have no life and have to get outside in the sun.

here i sit and mope:
despair being an endless loop,
wishing without hope i could
hide it like cats bury poop.

Life can be glum, like cat hair in your gum.

Ha! The Cat wonders why the song is not about him and furthermore…why should he care?
