Data's Ode to Spot

Felis catus is your taxonomic nomenclature,
An endothermic quadruped, carnivorous by nature;
Your visual, olfactory, and auditory senses
Contribute to your hunting skills and natural defenses.

I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,
A singular development of cat communications
That obviates your basic hedonistic predilection
For a rhythmic stroking of your fur to demonstrate affection.

A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;
You would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.
And when not being utilized to aid in locomotion,
It often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

O Spot, the complex levels of behavior you display
Connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.
And though you are not sentient, Spot, and do not comprehend,
I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend.

Who reads a magazine while standing behind a big pile of carrots? Are they going to eat the carrots? Why are the carrots on a pedestal? How and why did they get the bent carrot to sit erect at the top of the pile of carrots?

  • banning books and medications
  • reversing Roe v. Wade
  • unilaterally removing elected officials
  • taking rights from the #LGBTQ community
  • making voting harder for marginalized people
  • gerrymandering to unfairly skew representation
  • whitewashing African American history
  • refusing to enact real gun reform
  • supporting a #POTUS candidate who has been indicted 4 times, convicted of sexual assault, fake university, fake charity
