Robert W Service - My FeudRobert W Service - My Feud
Work rating: Low


I hate my neighbour Widow Green;     I`d like to claw her face; But if I did she`d make a scene     And run me round the place: For widows are in way of spleen     A most pugnacious race. And yet I must do something quick     To keep the hag in line, Since her red rooster chose to pick     Five lettuce heads of mine: And so I fed it arsenic     Which it did not decline. It disappeared, but on my mat     Before a week had sped I found Mi-mi, my tabby cat     And it was stoney dead; I diagnosed with weeping that     On strychnine it had fed. And so I bought a hamburg steak,     Primed it with powdered glass, And left it for her dog to take     With gulping from the grass: Since then, although I lie awake     I have not seen it pass. Well, that`s the scoring up to date:     And as I read a text From Job to justify my hate     I wonder who`ll be next? Somehow I feel that one must die,     Ma Green or I.
