How do you lead them through the labyrinth?
Cat heaven especially
Is the weirdest collection of chambers
And they spook so easily, spooks
Feline spooks will bolt
You gotta do it just right
With a firm voice and control
Shepherd them through the stepdowns
The switchbacks, transoms and half-doors,
The compartments full of umbrellas
The little rooms full of illusion
The shutters and the shadows
Usher them out to Cat Arms
Cat Alley or Cat Fields
Depending on their specific upbringing.
"Well, now...this looks like you."
With an inscrutable look the moggy trots off.
I think it was gratitude, who knows.
I do get p-mail all the time, which is nice,
Though I rarely know what I'm reading.
