The Cat Who Cloned Herself
A mystical, magical cat named Mary Maid Mim
Met me at my most favorite spinning class in a gym
She said, "Your beard certainly needs a good trim."
I thought, "This cat has a lot of sass, vigor and vim."
I brought her home, on a lark, using a box from the park.
She did not do any tricks the first day, choosing perhaps to stay.
The next night I awoke to two cats, and other one's name was Spats.
How did he get in, I wondered as I massaged my chin.
By day four there were four cats in my sink, cozy cuddily I think.
I could not believe my eyes, the two new ones were a surprise!
"I can clone myself," Mary Maid Mim told me, with finesse of an elf.
What in the world was I going to do? Every day a cat, a new?
