Ode to the Rat
The fearsome rat lurks in my mind
beside it many words unkind
"vermin", "filth", they leave no doubt
the rat's bad news to have about.
But were it gone, I'd miss the rat
though my son could never be a "brat".
The crafty rat scamps through my mind
four toes in front and five behind
though smart, the rat's good side is vague
and people blame it for the plague
just because it brings disease
when actually, it was the fleas.

Sooo... you're not a dog person, but a vermin person?
You say that like it's a bad thing! They're both okay with me.
No, vermin's is okay with me. Had a lot of friends with rats in college, and one with a ferret, which is kinda like vermin. Now if you waz a cat person, that would be different...
