Mice on the RangeA Rocky Mountain Tail

By Lisa Michot

They came to town for the round-up. Business mice out for a profit. $$$$$$

Eat more veggies

“Nobody knows the trouble I’ve

seen…♪”

Cattle rustlins’ a tough biznus.

Eat more brocolli.

Meanwhile, in the big apple, it’s business as usual.“I need cheese! Do you want me to spell it out? C-H-E-E-S-E!”

But pleasure is never too far away, even for the busiest mouse.

Meet me at the Roxy for a cheese sandwich by candle light…

911…“a rodent is

stalking me!”

Meet me at the dumpster

for a rotten Rueben and moldy muenster!

Laterthat night….

Meet me at the convention center

dumpsters for a news conference,

and leftovers.

Back in Denver it’s politics, and food, as usual…

Imperialist mice rage war wherever possible. “Et tu Rattus rattus?!”

Mice take on the issues…..

Meanwhile the mountains beckon.

Om Mani Padme Humॐ मणि� पद्मे� हूँ

Enlightenment can be reached at the top of the highest peak.
