My Mate Bob
My mate Bob
Is a big, black cat.
He’s hard and mean
And he’s nearly fat,
But I don’t love him
Less for that.
My mate Bob
Goes out at night.
He likes a drink
And he likes a fight.
He’s got a hole
In his left ear.
But I don’t love him
Less, I fear.
My mate Bob
Goes hunting mice
He plays then kills,
It’s not that nice.
He leaves their blood
On the kitchen floor
But I don’t love him
Less or more.
My mate Bob
Likes chasing cars,
He arm wrestles
In grotty bars.
He has a limp
Where he lost a toe
But I don’t love him
Less you know.
My mate Bob
Isn’t soft or sweet,
He hangs about
On the dangerous streets.
His neck is bald
And his tail is kinked
But I don’t love him
Less I think.
Oh my mate Bob
Is big and mean.
His temper’s bad
And his habits ain’t clean
But he purrs as he
Curls up on my bed.
I couldn’t love him
More! ‘Nuff said.
Like I said, absolute twaddle!
Bob
A marvellous tribute, Bob. Don't be harsh on your Blob - when one is caught in the storm of creativity, one cannot be held responsible for the ensuing art form.
