Those nails
Pity poor Pol Pot's cat.
Hitler's hamster.
Fed by this thing.
Stroked by this thing.
By this skin
those nails
they scratch
that spot.
Pity poor Pol Pot's cat.
I always thought Hitler was a dog guy. Stalin was into hamsters, though, if you know what I mean.

Wonderful, subversive, mezmorizing
Posted by: Heroic Imp at September 20, 2005 8:34 PMhave to take issue. yes, it's clever, but i reserve pity where it's appropriately placed. apologies, as i well know you are only being clever, but you know, poetry riles the rivers and all.
guess i won't be attending the play, 'a funny thing happened on pol pot's way to the countryside.'
"To pity distress is but human; to relieve it is Godlike."
---Horace Mann
