Honky White Trash Kitty-cat

I was sitting in my easy chair
my feet upon the pouf…
heels resting on a cushion…
'twas the best beneath this roof
 
Deep into a mystery
I was buried in the book…when
round the corner Honky came
he had that cat-crazed look...

He galloped through the dining room and pelted down the hall...by the time he reached the living room
speed had him in it's thrall...

Here is where... I red my book... as Honk came round the corner
headed for the cushion...on the pouf
next to my feet…

Yon cat leapt up into the air
assuming the position…
of a sitting feline
perched upon a cushion...

But...said cushion weren't attached at all when Honky sat upon it...and
cat with cushion in full flight
headed straight for wall…

Now at this point both parties smacked
into said wall…and slid…
...ig-no-min-ious-ly…
into the wastebasket…

Pretty soon a paw appeared…
and then another…
but when a third came into view
oh... the laugh I had to smother…

As the basket tumbled over Honk rolled into view...along with
all my scribbled notes
some old and some quite new...

As you can see there is no dearth
of subject matter on this Earth...
You know you'll never lack for that
as long as you still have a cat...
