Poetry by Twebbers

When trouts eat gerbils
And gerbils eat trout
Don't be surprised
When they both have gout

[Jedidiah]

I have not written poetry since grade school. Well there was college . . . I am just not a poet.

God is not a chess player.
God is the Sea.
We are the fishes.

A previous thread on the old site that worked well. I will start with a little humor on cats. The next one on dogs.

(Huffington Post) Bad news for all you cat lovers: That feline you are obsessed with is a total jerk. Sure, cats are cute, soft, lovable and an endless source of viral GIFs and memes, but in actuality, they kinda suck.

New Cat in Town

Hey guys who’s this black cat?
You new in town?
Yeah! Slipped in last week
You’re in time, holiday food abound.

What’s in a holiday, pray tell?
Red and Green balls of yarn.
Ribbons, bows and bells, bells, bells!
Inky Spoty bite these off my neck

New guy, what’s your name?
Name? What’s in a name for me?
You know, what our servants call you.
They don’t call, they yell and throw at me.

They may be your pets
But it’s not the world for me,
With forced pets and vets.
They’re a pain, it’s the loner life for me

Ya wanna spook the dog?
Spook a dog why bother?
Charlie’s the ambush cat, Pounce and scratch
Jerk and choke end of tether.

Serious guys dogs are dumb,
I prefer bash and crash.
Pisses everyone off, shout and curse
Eat well and scatter the trash.

Where do the girls hang out?
Silence was the answer, tipped.
Tabby Tubs rolled and cried.
Don’t tell me you guys been clipped?

Is it all play a tethered feather?
Eat fish spam from a can.
and spook dogs on the leather tether.
Neat, no competition, howl from the top can.
