doktor-howl
American Doktor Howl (1925-present) is the last survivor of the Old Bohemians Club, and is considered a rather unexceptional poet, who should probably remove his irons from the fire and put his poems in their place. Although he hasn't been included in a poetry anthology since the second world war, he has a pile of rejection slips that grew so large, it fell over and killed his wife. His work has not been translated into any other languages, unfortunately, as they don't seem to bear any relationship to the language he wrote them in. Doktor Howl is an accomplished scientist who has been banned from the campus of every major American and European university for what small-minded detractors call "unnatural acts", relating to his experiments.
Oh, the pain, the assault On my nose The bitter humiliation The gall of life's existence Devoid of meaning, Save pain The horrible squishing between My toes The cat has ****** in my boots. Again.

These Boots WERE Made for Walking
Howls in the night Keep sweet Morpheus at bay Some things just aren't right That ******* cat is having his way With the Neighbor's chihuahua again STUPID CAT! Rats are for EATING, not for making love!

Forbidden Love
My new best friend has perished Though I only met him last night His company was cherished That **** cat knocked him down And then drank the spilled bourbon Now I am bereft of my solace With only the empy bottle, and I maintain that if Coolidge were still president This would never have happened.

Grief Over a Dead Soldier
Ah, youth, were hast thou fled? It seems to me only yesterday that I was dodging the draft in WWII. Where was I? Oh, yeah. Someone's buggered off with My false teeth. It's that f*cking cat again.
