Sullivan a Pet Simian Ghost

You know my Sullivan a pet simian ghost
                               Rolling in blanket as warm as toast
                       'Watch out, it's my territory', cried out my cat
                        Just returned from a mission ' to smell a rat'.

                        It was an eviction but Sullivan braved it out
                      Clapped his eyes on the grinning feline's snout
                     He had the world by the tail and he stood erect
                    Jumped through the hoops to get my bed wreck'd.

                       And Meenie my cat was not of irrational type
                               She really hated to blow a hype
                         She purred and mewed and got her dues
                            Of milk cream fish broth salami huge.


                             I was sad for my Sullivan the ghost
                         In the dead of night he asked for a roast.
