we found
a mouse nest
i said
i guess i should have
been more great-full
for the cat
with the mat
of white tats
who had
broken in
to my garage
last week
and sprayed
it's smell
all over the heap
instead i was very mad
and called 211
for some animal control
information
i said i don't trust
myself
to talk
to the people
who own that cat
i know where they live
from the walls in their neighbour's house
and no doubt two mad hatters like us would
make a terrible fuss
i don't like violence but i am prone to it..
