Kitty's Revenge

(The kitty hanging in overalls shown for Francine Roberts' contest inspired this one but it won't be entered in the contest.) Just wait 'til I get my claws on the jerk that left me hangin' here! You suspend me in these ridiculous overalls and then you disappear! You would never do this to your darlin' pet, that pugnacious pug, That slobberin' slob, that arrogant beast, struttin' around so smug! So, I broke that fancy vase and ripped the curtains with my claws. This ain't no way to treat a pretty kitty - this really tightens my jaws! If I ever get down from here, I'll take pleasure in seekin' revenge! On this awkward situation you've put me in, I surely will avenge! I'm gonna leave hairballs all over the place - on your favorite chair, And on your fancy couch and in your food, you'll find my silky hair! I ain't gonna catch that mouse and I hope he eats all your cheese, And that you become so allergic to me that all you'll do is sneeze! Robert L. Hinshaw, CMSgt, USAF, Retired © All Rights Reserved
