Vinny

 

I'VE TAKEN MY CAT TO THE VET

IT WAS QUITE AN ADVENTURE

HE WOULDN'T GO INTO HIS CARRIER

NEITHER BACKWARDS

OR FORWARD

UP OR DOWN

HE PREFERRED OUT TO IN

I LET HIM WIN

BUT THEN

ARMED

WITH LONG CUFFED FIREPLACE GLOVES

I WON I WON I WON

I GOT HIM IN

HE DIDN'T WIN

I GOT HIM IN

I HAVEN'T HAD LUCK WITH VETS

EVER SINCE

I TOOK MY PET ANTNY

IN TO BE NEUTERED

AND CAME HOME WITH A SPAYED

ANTOINETTE

I'D NEVER CHECKED

THIS AFTER TELLING THE VET STAFF

RIBALD JOKES

HOW I HAD THROWN ANTNY

A BACHELOR PARTY

AND GIVEN HIM

A CATNIP HIGH

WITH ASSORTED MALE JOCK HUMOR

I LEFT TO THE SOUND OF LAUGHTER

WITH MY DELICATE

ANTOINETTE

WHEN I FINALLY GOT VINNY TO THE VET

I EXPECTED ANOTHER FIGHT

NONE

HE CAME OUT OF HIS CAGE

A PERFECT GENTLEMAN

BUT AFTER THE VET EXAMINED HIM

HE GAVE HIM SHOTS

WHEN HE RELEASED VINNY

HE RAN AND HID IN HIS CAGE

HOW LIKE

I THOUGHT

OUR RELATIONSHIP

WITH GOD

WE FIGHT HIM

UNTIL WE GET HURT

THEN RUN TO HIM

VINNY’S WELL

AND THE DOCTOR SAID

THE DOCTOR SAID

THE SCRATCHES WILL HEAL

AND ANTOINETTE

IS

QUEEN OF MY HEART
