Best Rattus Poems
A taxonomic binomial that does not sound fabulous:
That would be the term "Rattus norvegicanus".
The species belongs to the order Rodentia.
They can be found anywhere except Antarctica.
Rats seem to proliferate quite freely.
What annoying pests these creatures can be!
However, there's a way to rid them, fortunately.
Just take a trap and bait it with cheese.
That's a tried and true method to exterminate them with ease.
inspired by another member's poem
She screamed honey honey
Come see rats
He rushed for a slasher
ready to terminate descendants Muroidea
And sons of rodent
Where honey where
The the rat killer asked standing like superman
The woman shouted here here
The man asked under sheets?
The woman said yes honey yes
Rats in sheets
Rattus rattus honey
Come kill Rattus rattus
Her eyes were now blazing fire
And the man understood
He crawled like spider-man
Not to scare the muroid rodents away
His hand lay on the cotton mouse
And she started screaming again
Kill it Honey Kill it
He shot seven plus six plus two plus...
And her classical swine fever faded away
As all rats ran into their honeysuckle
Till she screams again
Rats Rats Ratter
Rats
If rats live on no evil star
Then why did rats not get that far ?
Or if they did, and then they left
Then why’s that star of rats bereft ?
And what of good stars ? Did they
Fail to keep the rats away ?
Did rattus come complete with fleas,
Lured on by interstellar cheese ?
Thought you are good at tongue twisters?

Untouchables
From the window at the hotel I could see
the back yard as a deep canyon of fear and
bins overflowing of half eaten food.
It was night in the canyon a life, cruel and
vile was taking center stage.
A big Rattus Norvegicus was sticking her
snout out of a disused drain pipe, sniffing
the air it was raining slightly, which was
good it kept cats away, those evil ogres
adopted by humans….As Pets!
She had given birth to six pink and blind
babies, and could not stay away for long,
other rats might find and eat them in this
world that knew no compassion and life
ended in violence.
Quickly, yet alert, she ran to the bins found
food, mostly burgers and fried potatoes.
Back in the lair her babies sought nutrition
and warmth; for a moment, in this world of
total outcasts, there was harmony and bliss.
