His name was not Morris
A pseudonym shackled to a once magnanimous cat
Human industry chiseled away
Television commercial after television commercial
Until all that remains was a ghost
Attached forever to a can of slaughterhouse byproduct
And when his soul was about to be freed
It was dragged back down by the purveyors of the new media
A terse human comedy is a tense feline tragedy
Feast your eyes, my fellow cats, on what humanity has done to our beloved friends:
