Animals Abound

Why do I care,
when the timid little mouse
chooses to stay in his house
and never venture out?
Go to hell little mouse.

Why do I care,
When I see the owl perched in his tree,
flap his wings, adjust his spectacles
and throw down disparities at me?
Your such a foul smart ass prick of a fowl.

Why do I care,
When I see the little badger
bitch and moan and give me guttural
groans from a hole he rarely vacants
because he thinks his own shit doesn’t stink?
Shut up you striped little fat rat.

Sly fox, murdering crow, gutless pig,
Laughing hyena, slithering snake,
they all seem to make me cringe
at the same moment I care?

Why? I ask you why.

Is it because I don’t want to be any
animal such as them?
