Re: FW: a poem

Cracks me up. Reminds me of that Kliban (sp?) guy...cartoon artist that drew this striped cat. In one cartoon, he was playing a guitar and singing: "I love them little micees, them micees what I love to eat, I bite they tiny heads off and nibble on they tiny feet." Cracked me up.

Nice Melody.  May I share one of my favorites?  It's a freaky little cat
haiku.

I like catnip mice
It's why I chew their heads off
They're good for breakfast
