Furry helpers

[Gingerbeard]

I have a sign for my door. I didn't realize how deep it is.

Dog
She will bark but
will not go past
the gate.

Deep, baby. Deep.

Damn! You Oregonians have large rats!!! You go kitties!!!!!

These are two of my " furry helpers" long haired is young about 7months darker one is 5+yrs we are not sure they are both rescues. Anyway i was on a early a.m. walk around the gardens here i found 3 dead fat rodents that older cat had killed and young kitty learning the ropes.

… to think them.

[Gingerbeard]

The thing about not thinking is when I start thinking again I have a whole bunch of pent up thoughts I didn't think when the time was appropriate.

[alltatup]

I know, GB: I wish you could simply unwind and quit thinking sometimes...

[Gingerbeard]

Not me, babe. It's the book. Here's my poem

Some roses are red (I'm trying not to generalize)
Violets are not (thus, the name)

That's where I get stuck. I get too... I don't know... analytical?

[alltatup]

You're quite the poet, GB.

[Gingerbeard]

Mia culpa. I went back twice and couldn't find your post. … and now I see...
It's poetry, ATU. I don't have favorite poetry because it's poetry. But the book opened to page 120. It's all sub-Vogon, at best. I need pictures.

The fat black cat
has been coming to our back door
Moirrrr?
she says
as if asking a question

I pour milk in the bowl
and the fat black cat
slurp slurps
and then sits back
staring at me
her tail slapping slowly
on the ground
shisk shisk

Moirrrr?

Skitter
skitters up
and leaps forward
her front paws
occasionally landing
in the bowl
and
the fat black cat
licks the top
of Skitter's head
and the turns
and saunters away
apparently
satisfied.

Pick your favorite, GB, and recite it to us...

[Gingerbeard]

I didn't throw my water cup at you. Consider it me saying please.
Vulcan cat pottery.
And I ain't yer cuz, Shirley.

[alltatup]

Now I ain't answering cuz you didn't say please. You don't scare me with your blustering threats about Vulcan cat poetry.

[Gingerbeard]

Then color me high because I have no idea where you told me what you wanted recited. Unless you mean that poem you wrote? Does your post #60.1 mean something in cat? Answer me, woman!
You will be very afraid of poetry if I pull out Vogon cat poetry. BBC Vogon cat poetry. Not the crappy Vogon cat poetry remake.

[alltatup]

I'm gonna have to disagree with you there, GB. Ain't afraid of no poetry, and I did tell you above what I wanted recited.

[Gingerbeard]

You haven't given me a page number, ATU. Notice the first two I shared had nothing to do with cat harm, and only one had to do with cats. I think, you, are afraid, of what you might get.
