Knot Mine - Part 5

"I get lonely sometimes with my books and the reading.
The mouse said so fast as if he were speeding,
The car and the highway and the motorway blues,
"The only things I read are the things that are true!
But no-one would argue or debate his point,
The dog was there sleeping,
The pig eating his joint,
"I do get so lonely but there's nothing I can do.
"Well you'd better do something because I'm getting tired of you
The dog would announce just woken from sleeping,
"The dreams that I'm dreaming are good enough for keeping!
"And whose fault is that? said the mouse pushing his glasses up his nose,
"The fault lies at your door you smell not of the rose!
With that the mouse held quiet knowing of the dogs temper,
And packed up his bags returning in late December.
