Mr. Blog


Mr. Blog is a cat
He writes faithful and true
And on the Internet he wrote
a blog for You.

And who pray is this You
that doubts Mr. Blog is a cat?
Oh if he only knew that
You doubt what cats can do

Like typing and blogging
Online many cats can write
Mr. Blog believes your doubting
Is a furball of a mouse he'll bite

So the picture shows
Clearly paws on the keys
And a voice in his head cried: Mr. Blog
Believes what he sees

And a devil's voice cried: The eyes
The eyes play tricks

Translator's Note: While he was writing his poetry, I snapped this shot of him. He really liked this picture and knew it would be the proof he needed to show others that it is he who is the author. It took him a few days to write a poem based on this photo. His inspiration was Stevie Smith, a British poet who was close to George Orwell.
