Blessing For Cats

a pleiades

Back off, speedy cat, wait for the word;
Brakes on, until the blessing be heard.
Button up, fat lips, let us give thanks.
Brother, do you remember the Manx?
Busy with gobbling, he failed to pray.
Buzzsaw, the dog, determined to play,
Bob-tailed cat, end result, on that day.

thanks, in a fit of despair, wanting to try a pleiades and a pushover for cats.
