Tabby tells
things she shouldn’t
spilling beans
she said she wouldn’t
through sealed lips
she’ll kiss and tell
Tabby is a
n’er do well..
her motor mouth
shoots rapid-fire
dishing dirt
a constant crier
a whistle that forever blows
Tabby keeps you in the know…
She unbags cat
no Schrodinger
and talks such smack
to totes strangers
she chats you up at wait for bus,
but keep an eye
Tab’s dangerous
she’ll toss you under
just because,
so if you want
to keep the peace
don’t tell Tab
she writes the beats
for gossip rags you might avoid,
because of course,
Tab’s a Tabloid.
