Eliminate All Doubts

5/18/17


Cat stalked a mouse
Trying to hide and crouch
Then it pounced

From the West, North, East, and South
We don't know what everything is about

Quit sticking out your snout
Don't pout 
Or whine and shout
And quit relying on word of mouth
As well as bragging about clout

Get off the couch
And bounce out
Of the house
Instead of being a slouch

Valuables stored in safes with or without a pouch

Near and far from waters that do or don't have trout

Times of flourishing and droughts
Hurting or helping bank accounts

For you, I just can't vouch
Considering that you may just be trying to oust
Or joust
Then you will eat your own words, and possibly get gout
When I come in full force, and eliminate all doubts
