It seems that ugly zinger rats
consider themselves acrobats.
This overestimated feeling
sees them attempt to reach the ceiling
where others really fear to tread
but just one blow and they are dead.
It think that at the Holy See
all rats are taught to poop and pee
in ways designed to smear all others
they even dump upon their brothers.
But when they climb to do their feats
their balls hang out beneath their seats
and once you shoot aimed at those things
the only rescue would be wings,
if rats had brains then they might know
that those that fly first had to grow
those feathered arms to get away
but rats are dumb, thus they must stay
and watch as mice turned into bats
through wings, to get away from cats.
Thus, once again, it proves that brains
will let you leave the common plains.
Herbert Nehrlich

they used to say in the old movies, james cagney used to spit it out
you dirty rotten rat, i wonder if he was around today would he address ratzinger with those very same words, Herbert this is a great poem on rat's without the zinger this would stand up in any forum on poetry, it is a shame that it has to be wasted on such a poor excuse for a human being
Warm regards allan |
