I was born a tabby cat
In Newcastle thatās me
My life was pretty comfortable
Until I met her
She
McNally
An animal behaviourist
She said gleefully
She was full of anger
And she took it out on me
Tragically Where I had come from
Was a lovely calming place
They understood
The deep ness in my soul
And showed me Grace
This 22 year old creep
In fact out of control
Angry she was on the edge
A very complex soul
frightened me from the offset
And stole my life from me
In a fit of anger
And I understand that
She
got a suspended sentence
Which seemed so underhand
I am Now in Heaven
I have reached the Summerland
āWhere I found out about my name
It
Came from the Hebrew
āAsherā meaning Happyā
And I guess I am happier hereš
