Only the Essentials
Bandaids for my skin that’s thin;
I always seem to need it.
After the demise,
a water filter is wise.
And don’t forget that feral cat.
Keep a rocket in your pocket to blast
the apocalyptic zombies away.
For my hideaway,
a case of Chardonnay.
And don’t forget that feral cat.
Cinnamon Crunch cereal that
goes snap, crackle and pop!
Power up with my handy
dandy portable generator.
And don’t forget that feral cat.
Orange flavored Gatorade
is so refreshing!
Case of bottled IPA beer.
A bottle of Rum, Keeps things fun. Cheers!
And don’t forget that feral cat.
I always pack my favorite jam
to spread where needed.
Without a dragon? Oh my!
It cooks, heats and flies.
And don’t forget that feral cat.
Not one for practicality,
a record player and lots
of post punk vinyl.
A journal and a pen, or ten.
And don’t forget that feral cat.
