Interdimensional Mice from Planet Invisible!

A  silly little poem that I’ve decided to retire. May it rest well.

Interdimensional Mice from Planet Invisible!

You dumb ones don’t believe in them,
but I believe.
I am smart and I believe and I know them!

You blind ones don’t see them,
but I see them.
I am bright eyed and I look and I see them!

You big ones can’t track them,
but I track them.
I see them and I track them and I will follow them!

You slow ones can’t chase them,
but I chase them.
I follow them and I chase them and I will catch them!

You weak ones can’t smash them,
but I smash them.
I catch them and I smash them and I destroy them!

You simple ones think they are shadows,
but I know they are invaders.
I chase them into walls and I vanquish them!

You humans think I am crazy,
but I am cat.
I smash shadows and I save you and I am cat!
(end)

Yeah, I know it’s lame, but it got my name into Locus, and that’s all that really matters, isn’t it?

    (takes deep breath, tries to remember to type in english. as opposed to MeowChat. okay.)

    this is wonderful, and a PURRFECT description of the phenomenii best known as Beauvart (reference to follow.)

    Is it weird that I relate to the protaganist in this story? It fills me with warmth knowing that there’s someone out there, even if it’s a cat, shit, better that it’s a cat, who understands me and my mixed-up, so-called life. Claire Danes, take me away.

    There was a very charming, if odd sense of duty conveyed there. I feel sudden sense of obligation to my spherical mound of feline.
