Egg-Stant History 2

Hello said the owl..' Dumpty just sat down rather morosely: the owl watched saying no more..' after a while Dumpty ventured to ask after the cat, 'how has he been?' he asked. Well you have been gone 5 days till now, replied the owl.. 'I slept 2 days right off..Then I awoke I got him a dish of water, WOW..' what a performance that was..' the dish for some reason decided it did not want to co-operate, I don't know what ever could have got into it.? it must have got into some strange company somehow..Imagine..' and him in the state he is in..' there was nothing for It I had to pick up the iron spoon, and threaten to splinter it into a thousand pieces...' Dumpty shivered involuntarily at this..' you didn't he gasped..' Oh I didn't wish to do any such thing said the owl, that bowls china is far to fine; that I would wish to destroy it anyway whoo whoo.. I mean who knows what future role in story books it has to play? well he had a drink poor old thing (mumbled about the fiddle) and then collapsed out again, and I have not heard a word out of him for the last three days.! He is in a catatonic state you know..) well that's the medical term..! is that because, well because he's a cat asked Dumpty? No considered the owl though I had not thought about it that way..' though praps it might carry some extra stigma..? I think it would best not to mention to him when he comes round..! copyright joe maverick poetry 2014
