Ode

Patty Seyburn

O Rattus Rattus, who gave you a name

built for the boozy dens of stand-up comedy?



Mostly men mock mostly women but you

would find a place there, repetitive



rodent, not for the way you nag, cook, or don’t

look how you did in salad days (yum) (yum)



but for the lack of creative juices

in your assignation, O double scurrier.



Patty Seyburn
