Dinker

He owned the neighborhood where we
transplanted him to South Jersey
from Florida. We'd left his sis
but didn't think that he would miss
her all that much, 'cause he loved me

He'd jump on anything he'd see
refrigerator, bird in tree
a mouse that he would give death's kiss
He owned the neighborhood

One mouse had the audacity
to be a warfarin causality
Dink’s neck became a giant cyst
but when he healed, could not resist
the squirrels, the mice, a bird in tree
He owned the neighborhood

Hey Daniel,

Don't know if you already posted this to AP but you should. Before you do though, check out S3/L1:
"One mouse had the audacity". Yes, I know it was a typo. Nice Rondeau!
