Why Change? Poem by Ima Ryma

Scientists checked the D.N.A.
Of cat remains from long ago.
The tame cat that we know today
Was once a wild cat, doncha know!
The wild cats and the humans came
Together when the mice did roam
To human food source - who can blame!
Wild cats followed to a new home.
Thousands of years passed and the cat
Has not changed that much, in or out,
Tolerates humans' this or that,
For own self serving wants, no doubt.

The unchanging cat as subject -
Why? Because the cat is purr-fect!
