What Comes Naturally,
But I have to Scold You, My Pet
I know you only meant to make
A dandy first impression
By killing this whole crowd, but Jake,
Behold my grave expression–
For it is impolite, I think,
And maybe even naughty,
Recruiting everyone in sight
To play the role of Body–
Your nature calls you to the task,
I knew from your first GRRR!—
But some restraint gets less complaint
Than utter massacre.
I thank you that you rout the moles
And rodents by your labors,
Dear Jakey Boy, but next time leave
Your teeth out of the neighbors.


You are in a wild mood today, no?
Who, *me*???
Oh, my…this post evokes interesting visuals!
I knew I had to find a way to use the shot I photographed of the dead bird I found still hanging from its branch (talk about a death grip! It stayed in the tree at least a couple of weeks, to my knowledge, despite all weathers), but I hope the digital doctoring made it a little more seemingly removed from reality (as if the real thing didn’t seem surreal enough!) so no one got the creeps too badly. 🙂
Lightening affords your mood striking opportune…
Dark deeds for my delectation! 😉
