the rot

now that thats that
and im centered, and sat
let us think of the many neat ways
to declause this cat

pull out each nail
one at a time
pay close heed
they are not mine

we could burn them off
paws to the fire
but working with flame
can sometimes be dire

i’ll tell you the truth
much sooner than not
i’m not even worried
they’re just gonna rot
