A month of madness

The night of cat

 Twas the night before Christmas
Folks came back from a prayer pub
Around just passed midnight 
twas a hint in the air

With their heads all a sleeping
Inebriate R.E.M
It was time for the Kramp puss
To now cause mayhem

He kept well to the shadows 
His eyes searching high
For the bright coloured baubles
In his mind, should now die!

Twas the morn of old crimbo
And the folks were in stress
From the hangover and swearing
And the house in a mess

Now the tree all a sparkle
A devotion of spruce 
Seemed to be left at angle
Known as wonky obtuse

And the tinsel all hanging
From the boughs with such care
They found all rather shredded
Now arranged Vogue Despair 

And the turkey defrosted
With its contents within
Found a mile down the road
Betwixt two wheelie bins

And sleeping quite soundly
Was a cat with white ears
He had fun as the kramp puss
Can't wait till next year.
