A Tale of Greed and Cunning...

                 #430

             Morality Play

The finicky cat

And the ever-hungry rat

Agreed to a truce on the spot.

Said the cat to the rat:

"I'll share my food, if you promise

Not to eat the whole lot."

Said the rat to the cat:

"You have yourself a deal;

Now, let's see what you've got."

Well, the cat moved back

And uncovered his pot,

And the rat dug in

And ate the whole lot.

Then the cat ate the rat,

Like as not, like as not;

Then the cat are the rat,

Like as not.

        The Ins and Outs

Our black cat, an  in and out cat,

Sits like a sphinx by the door.

When she's in it's out she wants;

When she's out it's in.

In either case you can't tell by her face;

So it's best her desires you ignore.
