The Agropuss
I thought I saw an Agropuss when I was out one day
The morning it was moisty as the clouds all surfed away
But it was not an Agropuss that caught my skandric eye:
A Blunderhound had chanced upon my path and loundly cried...
“Who dares to trip, this moisty morn, upon this field of mine?
I must insist – ‘No Tresspassers’” Did you not see the sign?
His jaungreen eye was stalking me as trembling there I stood
His slathing lips licked hungrily at thought of my fresh blood.
Alas I had not read the words to which my crime was mooted,
And Blunderhound said “Tresspassers must be propped up and shooted.”
I cried, I grovelled, I pled, I crawled, I begged on tremblus knees,
But Blunderhound with jaws ope’d wide, grinned, “lunch beneath dark trees.”
I promised if he’d let me go, I‘d never make a fuss
And that was when I saw the shade of scratchious Agropuss!
His face was blue. His look was black
His tail hissed wildly on his back
Snapped like a whip and then flew back
On Blunderhound with grutious crack.
The claws slatched wild through flesh and fur,
The hound was gashed from ear to ear.
Then agropuss began to purr
And licked his lips –
“You’re next my dear!”
