A Cat Speaks Out
A Cat Speaks OutJust in case you haven't heard
A cat pronounce it I say "Merde!"
Perhaps you should just hear it twice.
Well, very well, this cat says "Scheiss."
Which isn't twice. Well, sing Goddamn
A forlorn Kitty's what I am.
Alluding to both Pound and Keats
And offering you these kitty treats.
Friend, you have not larks nor linnets
When all it takes is just five minutes
To write a poem just as fine
Omitting that quite awful line
Which makes it, really, somewhat better
And makes this cat say "Donnerwetter!
Is this the promised end or what?
Q.V. Pope on Arbuthnot.
