Why Is Professor Kib So Serious

Scientific cat peers out of a steampunk telescopic lens
Designed to specifically see microscopic organisms
Who developed the formula? An inept dog queries.
Professor Kib keeps silent, studying his microbe slides.

Seriously why are you so studious? A tabby lab worker asks.
He is drinking an abomination from a dirty green flask.
Kib rolls his brown glowing eyes, giving a growl and a pitter pat.
His mind too concentrated on success to waste time on this cat.

I know that in the 60's they turned four 'Monkees' loose in a music studio... Is your poem what happens when they turn cats and dogs loose in a university lab?! ~ Just wonderin'
