Cat Vs. Mirror: The Phantom Menace

His likeness was mine,

His visage my own.

His eyes shone the same,

His fur shared my tone.

I gazed at him

And he gazed back at me.

I figured he saw

What I also did see.

I swiped at his paw

And he swiped back at mine.

It was time to rebuke

This copycat swine!

We swiped at each other.

His claws were like glass!

We fought like equals

But I kicked his ass.

Then I spun around

And that coward fled.

Now it’s time for eating

And then off to bed.

Other People’s Cats

Life is like this little guy,

At first cute and fluffy and shy.

It’ll sit on your lap,

Happy purring, then SNAP!

And that’s why I wear this glass eye…

I Write From Experience

If you feel lonely,

Forgotten and blue,

Put a cat in your profile pic

And everyone loves you.

The Cat In The Lap

‘Twas a quiet day in the house

And a good day to be a mouse

For as the sly poet tried to come up with crap

The cat on the floor flew onto his lap.

“Hello there kitty,” the poet did shout

As the cat proceeded to let its hair all fall out.

The poet spoke more and stroked it’s blonde fur,

And the cat licked itself and mumbled a purr.

Then the poet’s appointment, confirmed as it was,

Took precedence over the self-licking fuzz. 

And so he departed, and the cat in the lap

Lay down in his sheddings for his apathy nap.

Nope, Not The Cat

I live a life of luxury,

Amidst my massive family.

They rub and brush my golden hair,

And I reward them with “I don’t care.”

I have three hobbies. These are they:

On your freshly vacuumed chair I lay,

Peeing on your lovely walls,

And playing with my hairy balls.

You say you love me. Who knows why?

You’ll probably outlive me (heavy sigh).

Having me is lots of fun.

Forever yours, your teenage son.

Make Of It What You Will

The dragon did think

It’d be cool to have ink

And so decided, “what the heck?”

The jungle cat, too,

Got a tattoo

Of a human on it’s neck.

Revenge

Bird in the window,

Looking at me.

Windowsill avian,

What do you see?
Human inside,

Being looked at-

I just came to say,

“Say goodbye to your cat.”

That Wasn’t Chicken

I wanted fried rice
At a very low price
Because I was poor and young.
What other excuse
Would I have for the use
Of a menu from “Meow Tse Tung.”
