A Little Cat, A Little Map
by Monkey

A little cat went to sleep one day.
The next he went out to play.
On the third he took a little nap,
And on the fourth he found a little map.

"I wonder where it goes," he said
"Maybe a far off land, like New York or Japan,
A frightful journey it will be,
So maybe instead I should watch t.v."

"Sounds like fun," I said to him.
I'm another cat, my name is Jim
I too had found a map, did I
And boy it sure did make me cry

It wasn't a fun time at all
I tripped on a rock, then fell in a hole
I vowed to never go again
To the place of death and of sin

Never did I go again,
And that is why they call me Jim
Let that ponder through your mind
Welcome to my realm, you'll be fine!
