With a single flap of wings
Feathers float on air

Humans are stupid
Thinking they can hide the cream
From us smarty cats

Every Sunday, we would meet
At Mama’s, twas the place to be
Good home cooking, what a treat
We were one big happy family
Until the day, Mama changed it up
Served us, in these little black pans
We couldn’t tell what it was for sup
We were all a bit of a baffled clan
We asked and pried, to no avail
She said dig in, and stop yapping
All we wanted was a little detail
Never ate what needed unwrapping
One by one, we all stuck in our forks
Each time we pulled mashies and corn
Seems Mama forgot to add the pork
So there we sat, sad and forlorn
But Mama ate away at her meal
Seems she simply didn’t understand
Her dish was lacking in plate appeal
From the table, we all did disband
Now, maybe you’re thinking shame on her
The woman didn’t feed her poor family well
But Mama knew exactly what she was doing
When the other dinners, into her belly, fell

She juggled her life
Made it fit into the day
Until, she ran out
Felled by wasted distractions
She squandered her existence

Oh, hi there, I wasn’t expecting you
Please excuse me, if you don’t mind
I made my over here, for what, no clue
But, it’s something I hope I can find
Lately, I’m lost, don’t know what to do
I wonder if you’d help me, in kind
Find the thing, blocked from my view
Especially, if I try looking behind
I think I’ve gotten myself into a stew
If I don’t find it soon, I’ll be in a bind
What’s that you say, just buy it new?
Great idea, ah, at last, I can unwind…
…Now, what was it I was looking for?
