Amy and Sputnik

dollops of dander
mighty mousers meander—
cats with cattitude

Mark; don't forget Voyager if you ever get a cat that is further 'out there.'

Nothing like 'cattitude!' Bullseye, 'Marks Man!' … Ready for this: I read the title as 'Army and Sputnik.' I was all ready to read about 1957 and that satellite when -- Voila! I see two cats. Imagine my surprise... lol. Glad I checked it out. Thanks, Mark! Cheers, Gershon

Lol, I needed a good laugh, Gershon :) If it makes any difference, 12 years ago we named him Sputnik after the satellite because he was `out there.' Gershon, thanks for the great comment--actually comments on the other poems too! ~Mark
