"sex and territory
...will finish us off."
(February)

Okkaaayyyy...

I'll be honest, this was strange. However, it was interesting. When I was first reading this, all I could think of was some couch potato that did nothing in the winter but wear a dirty sweatshirt. The line that I quoted, though, implies that there really is some depth to this poem. It's a very profound statement, especially since it's being compared to a cat. I think the poem is a satire and it is really a warning(I may be getting a little warning-happy after the summer reading) against greed and sloth. The fat cats that only want sex and land often fight. It's a very good comparison to today's world because sex and land/money are the two main motivating factors, it seems. I still don't get the hockey reference, though.
