Listen up mice!
When you invade my home
you are about as cute
as the Stay Puff Marshmallow Man.
Yes, your soldiers have followed us
from Chicago, to Washington D.C.
and now to our home, our safe haven
in the City of Brotherly Love
We are not Brothers you and I.
My cousin says
I should get out my flute
pipe you right out
cackling gleefully
as you march to your doom.
My girlfriend’s Babchi
found your weakness.
“Bacon, dental floss, snap trap.”
Others agree. Death for you
should be sudden, swift,
unceremonious.
Your scratching, sniffing
scurrying, spying,
has turned this peacemaker
into a killer. I agree
with what Susan said,
“The only good mouse,
is a dead mouse.”
R.I.P. Mickey.

Kaboom!
