Poem



 “So long as you have food in your mouth,
  you have solved all the questions for the time being.”
                                        _ by Frank Kafka


Oh yes, I am known as a Mouse!
For months I've survived in their house.
I hunt here alone-
At least in this zone.
My food source is one I espouse!

On their buffet bar rests a plate
Of Reese's Cups, they sometimes ate.
But they do not know-
At night by moon's glow,
I stash them for a future date.

To holes on an old bookcase floor, 
I carry each ready to store
And stack them up high,
As I proudly sigh,
Now I will be hungry no more!

But, one night I found they were gone!
Each one of my treats was withdrawn!
In that spot they placed
A trap- set and braced!
I left there before the new dawn!

So hard I had worked every night;
Each one I had moved with great might.
If they only knew
What I had gone through-
They would have admired my plight!

But, I'm just a Mouse and I fail
To live life on a greater scale.
For much, I don't ask-
To eat is my task!
Move on- to what fate will avail.
