curiosity didn't **** my cat
no it was my nana
together with every other pet
my rabbit and green iguana

she looked after them so well
no they weren't neglected
she cleaned them so they didn't smell
and be from disease protected

she fed them more than herself
and smothered them with love
she always had treats on the shelf
in their mouth's she could shove

but despite warnings from the vet
their portions must decrease
my every pet was much too fat
and died from being obese

you need to have an open mind
said the lobotomist
to life's surprises not be blind
said the optometrist

you never know when sparks might fly
said the electrician
there's more to this than meets the eye
said the old magician

life should be a joyful ride
said the fun park operator
what matters most is what's inside
said the interior decorator

live each day like it's your last
said an optimist
just make sure that it is a blast
said the terrorist

learn from life's patterns and it's trends
said the investment banker
and future will be in your hands
said me (a well known ******)

population growth is slowing
were almost at our peak
the latest data trends are showing
our ***** becoming weak

or are we up to our necks
engaged in other forms of action
where the purpose of having ***
is no longer reproduction

maybe everyone's too busy
and too tired we've become
or maybe it's become far too easy
just to go to ****.com

I'm a guy who loves his maps
physical and topographic
staring at them more perhaps
than pictures pornographic

and maps political and aerial
i find them all hypnotic
they contain more material
than any story that's ******

there's historic and climatic
they're more beautifully complicated
than the beauties in the attic
when i'm watching films *******

so i'll always love my maps
at the Atlas stare for ages
but you might find weird gaps
and a bunch of sticky pages
