Feline impediments to a Sunday nap 听
Two cats recline upon my chest; 听
One looketh east, one looketh west. 听
One points the end that looketh south
Toward the end where ith my mouth. 听
When one cat stirs, the other growls;
The first one hisses through his jowls.
I try again to close my eyes 听
And hope they reach a compromise.
Instead, the two begin to circle 听
To better make my surface workle. 听
They treat me as (this makes me sore) 听
Floor model in a mattress store. 听
These two, I note, we treat as brothers
And as for cats, we have had others; 听
But male or female, expensive or free, 听
All seem to lie on top of me. 鈥� Con Chapman
