Write a Nove Otto referencing mice and rats.
Staying in place is not unique
Climbing high, right up to the peak
Like rats scuttle in a sewer
Looking for food for a huge feast
To the mouse, it looks like a beast
Happy with food sizes fewer
Hide from its cousin-ish vermin
Choosing the country to live in
Predators look for their skewer

Rats terrify me. Especially the large ones that challenge you to your face 😜

Good Lord! I have never had one challenge me to my face. I have had one sniff me with acceptance! Lol

Hehe! The mice and rats do compete for food in an urban setting but in the wild they don’t as much… This one has great rhymes! Rats and mice don’t discombobulate me. But when I was in college and visited a friend’s house – well, I showered and when I stepped out there was a very large rat sitting on my towel, and he was not inclined to vacate the area! Fortunately he decided to move when I reached for the towel!!

Was he a pet or a pest? I don’t know what the big difference is except that I heard city rats can get really big!

Its funny because I don’t mind them but the times I have seen either of them in “real life”, wild, they have scared me half to death!
