lhskarkaGeek poetry. I can only blame my affection for this verse on the grade school music teacher who taught me the nursery ryhme Three Myopic Rodents and my own love of word play.
Three Myopic Rodents
Three Myopic Rodents
Three Myopic Rodents
Observe how they perambulate
Observe how they perambulate
They circumnavigated the agriculturist's spouse
She excised their extremities with a carving utensil
Have you ever observed such an occurance in your existance,
As three myopic rodents?
Three Myopic rodents
And now todays poem; attributed to Commander Data, from the Star Trek: Next Generation episode “Schism”
Ode to Spot
Felis Cattus, is your taxonomic nomenclature, an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature? Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.
I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations, a singular development of cat communications that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.
A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents; you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance. And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion, it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.
O Spot, the complex levels of behaviour you display connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array. And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend, I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.
