CAT HAIR MESS

KITTY CATS STOP SHEDDING

Clean all day and still can’t

Make this mess go away

Pick up here, pick up there,

Pick up everywhere,
Get this urge to purge
Feel a great surge of energy

Vacuum, mop, careful to reach every spot

On the floor, the problem at its core

Is cat hair everywhere, I abhor

Hair all over the floor, my clothes

I can’t bear it anymore

I say a prayer thinking that will help

I swear it seems the more I clean

the more hair spreads around

I declare war and still can’t make a dent

Buy special mops and dusters, I’m spent out

All I can do is vent about it

No matter how frequently I mop and dust,

The cat hair increases instead of decreases

Try to make peace with all the hair

Ask the cats to please cease shedding

But apparently, cats don’t listen

More difficult to get rid of than grease

It’s even in clean clothes

Inside my drawers,

I adore my cats

But they shed on the bed,

Even find cat hairs on my head

Cat hair all over the floor and me

Spend half my day cleaning

The hair builds quickly I confess,

Reappears magically causing me stress

Impossible to make a dent in the mess

After all my efforts to dispossess
The hair remains nonetheless

Where Did The Day Go

Working To Save My Flow Blow-By-Blow On A Paid Word-A-Day Work Flow Pantoum

I sat at my computer with a cat on my lap to help me relax
She flew up from her seat like the cat’s a bat outta hell bent on a personal attack
Reacts as though she saw a rat on my lap instead of a cat
Like a spoiled brat she makes me put my cats on lock down

She flew up from her seat like the cat’s a bat outta hell bent on a personal attack
I put on my thinking cap try to resolve the problem - get it down pat
Like a spoiled brat she makes me put my cats on lock down
I frown at the crackdown - locking the cats out of my computer room is wearing on my nerves

I put on my thinking cap try to solve the problem down pat
I want to tell her scat she deserves no reserves
I frown at the crackdown - locking the cats out of my computer room is wearing on my nerves
Sets me all a gloom a sense of doom pervades my bloom

I want to tell her scat she deserves no reserves
I’m unnerved and need to conserve my energy, my synergy
Sets me all a gloom a sense of doom pervades my bloom
I upbraid her try to turn myself into a mermaid to escape her

It would be in her interest to understand the facts
Reacts as though she saw a rat on my lap instead of a cat
Please try to understand I’m your worker not your doormat
I sat at my computer with a cat on my lap to help me relax
