A cautionary tale for Tom Cats… and boys (of all ages)…

A Tom Cat I heard of was a bit of a fool,


Always walking backwards; he really thought 'twas cool.


Till one day - walking backwards - crossing a rail track


A train chopped his head off, with a thundering crack.


He's not learned the truth that being a fool is bad;


If you follow your tail, you surely lose your head.
