"Simplicity" rearranged


Cute, up to a point

Humans are cute
when they bow to our wishes, 
opening doors
and filling our dishes.

But whenever 
they step beyond
treats, toys and food,
Those tall dopes can put me right into a mood.

I try to correct them,
And lecture them, too,
but they’re dense;
my instructions don’t always get through.

They yell No! and Stop!
and among their bad habits
Is thinking they’ll stop me
from chasing my rabbits.
