If mice were the size
of kangaroos
& kangaroos the size
of mice
you would just gasp
& stammer: 'Here mate...'
'Just...just...take the bloody cheese
but don't hurt me please! '
'I'm allergic
to pain! '
you would explain
as he cleared out your fridge
before hopping it.
Then you would go get & set
the nastiest trap to catch
those annoying little kangaroos who
keep you awake
all the night
long.

A MOUSE OR A MAN
I, a wee timrous beastie
when confronted by yon monstrous mousie!
