Though ratcatchers mainly are paid by the rat
we poets aren’t paid by the word,
in fact we are not paid at all, but my cat
catches all of the words she has heard,
and when I have finished reciting my verses
she purrs. My ex-wife does this too,
but all my cat does when she's told to fight versus
the rats round our house is to mew.

I would like to translate this poem
'You dirty brother! You killed my rat! ' (you have to imagine the Jimmy Cagney accent here.) Danny
