The kid next door
was in his garden
digging with a little *****
like he was burying something
"What you doing, kid?"
I asked earnest little Jerry
"You look like you're burying something"
"Yeah...." replied the boy
"I'm burying my goldfish"
"Oh," I said, with a condescending grin.
*"Mighty big grave
for a little goldfish, don't you think?"*
"Yeah," Jerry replied.*"That's because
my goldfish is inside your cat"*
