The Write Cat?

The Write Cat

My tom's a bright and big boy -
He does it to annoy.
When he's lonely and he's
Ignored, he stomps upon the keys.

Should I teach my pet the alphabet
Hope he pats out witty prose?
Teach him edition and derision,
Hope each kitty ditty shows
He can add up what he knows?

Or will Cat, nipped by the rage
To peck pointless periods on a page,
Type no tyke teasers or hypotheses,
But pat out parades of parentheses?

Teach his mate to nap upon the spacer
Just because he's cat-curious,
Counting nanoseconds til I grow furious
Enough to scream and chase her?
Teach kit to leap and race her
Claws (without pause or erasures)
Until white's stippled with a luxurious
Excess of "@g$*&mF09+!"ers?
