| Posted by Jody Pratt on 09/30/12 at 06:48 AM "You're not mine and you can have me," is what I got out of it. Clever. The title definitely caught my eye. I thought it would be a poem poking fun of someone with comparisons between them and how much better a cat would be (like, "You sleep all day, not like my cat" but subtle.) Caught me off guard when I only saw two lines. |
