You pretty little kitty,
Playing with the ball of string,
Don't you know about the city,
Where speeding car tires sing?

You only know about the playing,
Out there on the avenue,
What's that the kids are saying?
A car's got it in for you?

Pretty kitty on the boulevard,
I'll risk my life for yours to save,
You're safe, but I was hit too hard,
I may die for you, but that's OK.


Please tell Doreen I wrote this - she can be a real sweetie!  *sweet, innocent, Vice-Presidential eyes*

Hmm you think the battle lines might be crossed with this one Sailor??...lol. Poor little kitty. Wouldn't have been our Persnikitty....would it??  




When you are old and grey and full of sleep,
And nodding by the fire, take down this book,
And slowly read, and dream of the soft look
Your eyes had once, and of their shodows deep;

How many loved your moments of glad grace,
And loved your beauty with love false or true,
But one man loved the pilgrim soul in you,
And loved the sorrows of your changing face...

YOU MEAN OLD SAILOR!! (you don't look like a Krazed Kitty Kruncher in person)
I'm so glad I had my poor little baby kitty Darjeeling safely at my Mom's house while you were here. Who knows what would have happened to him out on our road....

I'm all aquiver with the thought
That the kittens don't know my heart.
Oh, Lord, show them what I wrought,
To show my sweetest part.

I hope I've done it    

If you really want to know my heart,
And how I feel about God's creatures.
You need look no farther for a softer part
Than where a little kitten reaches.

I cannot hurt even a flea,
Without feeling pain and despair.
I just write about what isn't me,
Cuz this is the only place I dare.

For me you women will always remain
Where I've placed you in my heart.
Above me in a higher plane,
Where you've been right from the start.

So go ahead and tangle my legs,
Bring me crashing to my knees.
Your pulchritude makes me beg,
To do everything you please.

"pulchitrude"? pray tell, what's THAT?
does that word hard slam a cat?
"pulchitrude"? is that the spelling?
looked it up, so i'm not telling!

longjohn, this is such baloney!
you come off as quite a phoney!  
first you cause a cat car crash...
then you come in talking trash
about how you just love the kitties--
rhymes conflict within your ditties!!     

then you speak of "pulchitrude"!
longjohn, are you being rude???
do NOT mess with this cat's paw -
my sharp claws i won't withdraw!

meeeow! i'll give you definition...
for an LYING politician!

Blimy mates!
What's this I hear?
Soothly spaked the
First Mate of 'Deer?
Oh, what a tatter
Me seen those tires
Get fatter
While the dawg on the hood
Growled for blood
T'was a Mack attack
Though 'Deer weren't near
But I do hear it told
For a camera photo
His running mate
Hit the gas, 'stead of brake
And squished my dear uncle
Or was it my aunt?
Hmm...time to stray
For to digest this news
But Lngjhnag shouldn't be miffed
If he finds in his shoes
A persnikitty feline gift

Long John, you ole scalawag...
First you attack, and then you brag!
You have to know that we have guessed
The "soft part" where those claws did rest!
That knowledge does serve to explain
Why Lorelei's not yanked your chain
All alone now, you might bellow
But Kitty's made you sing soprano! LOL

YES!!!

glad to see you, suthern kitty
joining in this bogus ditty
from a longjohn nearly lacking
vice pres'dential cat attacking!

psssssst... longjohn, my back's up sailor!
watch your back and your e-mailer,
these cats might just get the notion
to send 'lectronic verse in motion!    

no, this isn't any threat.
not 'til when and not 'til yet...
you continue with your Vice
of slamming kitties....
that's NOT NICE!!!

What the heck is going on here?



Well, I just thought I'd ask considering the fact that my name was in the title of the poem... LOL... good grief! Well, all I can say is this-- Mr. Long John... your anti-cat poem brought a bit of negative response from these forums and I hope, next time you consider posting anything like this, you think about it first. Not to be catty or anything, but, this really wasn't in keeping with a Vice Presidential candidate's platform. But I'll still stick to the ticket...for a litter while anyway... unless some candidate comes up with something  better.... no... not possible... you have my vote, Mr. future VP... but please in the future, keep my name out of it, ok?... *wink*

Well, so Long Matey !
No place on the ticket for you !
Just had to mess with those kitties ...
and that will never do !

Back to the search, Balladeer
Oh, my - Oh, my - Oh, my !
I think of all the work you've done ...
I sigh - I sigh - I sigh !

Look !  On the horizon ...
XAngel on her steed.
Coming to the rescue ...
helping the party in need !

I know you favor TOE
and though he fits the bill ...
XAngel is available
and wishes to serve at will !

If asked, she would serve
XAngel would soften the ticket
And if she saw a kitty ...
she'd certainly never kick it !

Durn it !
Let's get this ticket together !

I will never understand women, even if I live to be the successor to Balladeer and lead this country into a society that loves all kittens and cats.  Here I write this sweet poem about giving my life to save a kitty from the tires of a speeding car (yep, go read it for yourself if you don't believe me), and all the "kitty lovers" come out and try to scratch me from the ticket!  I don't care!  I still love kittens, and I always will!

BTW - pulchritude, for those of you who haven't looked it up, is a noun meaning beauty, and is usually reserved for feminine beauty, of which there is an amazing bounty of in the forums.  *exiting with Vice-Presidential decorum*

YOU CHANGED THE POEM!!!

this is the second time you've done this to me....you are a scoundrel! AND you spelled the word wrong, btw... the correct spelling is "pulchritude"...

so, since you're so handy with the edit button, why don't you go back and correct the spelling, too, that way, you can continue to make me look stupid   *boohoo*

you'll probably renege on campaign promises, too.

Now girls that is a "TRUE Politician, he changed the poem to fit the outpouring of popular opinion...and then didn't have the guts to fess up to it. At least a woman when she changes her mind, does it openly and above board.

We need a woman in the White (soon to be painted another color) House!!!!

A true politicion, indeed, Ms. Angel! Do you think Ron intended this type of thing to happen when he set up the software to include an edit button? I'm bumping this up top so it can be read again.... this man needs to be exposed!!! One of the cats in here mentioned ripping off his longjohns and frankly, after reading the original poem which put a nice sweet kitty cat in front of spinning tires with glee...and then his edited catnip.... I didn't want this to slip too far from the public eye... after all, political candidates  usually claim they don't get enough exposure... so maybe Lorelei isn't the only one who should be pulling his pants down!!!

geesh... Pinnochio in the White House.... LOL... well, could be worse, I guess... at least LongJohn didn't beat around the bush with this one and gore us with doublespeak... he got right to the point and quickly stood on his own platform.... sorta like wearing boots

My dear sweet Pandora - I changed the spelling as you requested - See?  I always do what a woman tells me to do - its a small flaw in my personality (my desire to be used by women).

Heather - A woman has been in the White House, and if she is worth her salt, her views are probably part of public policy.  Naturally, the smart women know it is better to be First Lady - after all, why take the blame for lousy decisions when a man can do it for you?

Janet Marie - Yanno, I would have fessed up to changing the poem if it hadn't been for all the flaws in my character *innocent eyes*.  Naturally, the newer version of the poem is the one that really reflects my character (I think, but I'm not really sure *eg*).

Queen - Alas, I fear you are right.  Without Queenly guidance and the loving guidance of my Lorelei, I am just adrift on the Sea of Rebukativity.  How are you doing?  Send me an email describing everything.  OK?

Doreen - Gulp, a public pantsing?  I just KNEW I shoulda changed my whitey-tighties two days ago!  Maybe if I throw myself at your feet and beg for mercy, you'll forgive me?  *wimpy handwringing*

Corinne?  et tu?  And that laugh.... evility - I think I oughta be just a leetle more worried.  Quick, somebody!  Take away her Veterinarian license before she gets me sedated and stretched out of fixin'!!!

Mark - LMAO@Cheetahs.  Great graphic.  I especially liked the implied peg leg on the poor prey.
