Poodle

Mr. French poodle sips a Beaujolais Snubs a nose at the bourgeoisie So middle class with a café ole in glass A puffy bulbous tail wags in approval Groomed to perfection at the salon It purrs at the proletariat’s amusement Smiling at the working class An upper class agenda will not prevail Is this a pussy cat transgender at last? Is this man’s best friend about to mate Or make a puddle by trade or mistake? Oh what a tangled web we weave When once we practice to deceive If God is alive in all His devices All men would be turned to mice How nice!
