Cat Mouse Space Games

on earth many a mouse
hunting prey cheese
is swift mousetrap caught

in space the moon
is the night mouse
the earth hunting cat

earth waits huge mouth open
huge feline fangs teeth showing
waiting to swallow whole mouse

a natural ending to cat mouse games
base animals space wars old habits
space quarantine grounds earth minds
