: Shrew World 3 by Bill Schott




Of all the hobbies to spend some time with,

there is one I'd recommendith;

sure it's fun to capture rats,

but trapping shrews is where it ats.


Imagine if you will a giant fellow,

towering above us like a --  "Hello?"

"Yes, we were wondering if this poem was going to get any better.

If not, we'd like to use this space to knit a sweater."


"I do not imagine that it will get much better, no. 

However, I am controling this space now, soooooo --"



Imagine if you will a giant fellow,

like the Sta-puff guy made of marshmellow;

you see, that's you, to a tiny shrew,

so, we can do this, and this is how we do.


First we find a shrew that's on the loose,

most will be, so there'll be many cloose;

that will lead us right to where they are,

that's when you screw the top off the jar. 


"What jar? When did we get a jar?"

"Who is "We" and why are you har?"

"Why are we 'har'? What's that about?"

"Please let me finish and then you'll find out."


.
Lefty loosely, remove the lid,

place the jar where shrew are hid;

soon the shrew will fill the glass,

replace the cap and let time pass.


If you’re not sure that this will do,

and just can’t suffocate a shrew;

perhaps we could have a tea,

serve earl grey, some chips, and Brie.


Negotiate a shrew-you peace,

so hostile action soon will cease;

I guess this trap will set you free,

here  we’re ending Shrew World Three.
