Composed upon the passing of C.J. around the year of our Lord 2010:
Dad-Koresh, a king.
Dad-Koresh, a king!
He who saw the deep places below Khampound
2/3 Presbyterian and 1/3 Baptist
He tormented his children
He made them angry
They cried out to the gods,
"Send us a companion for our king!
Save us from his purityrannity!"
Aroo-roo heard their cries.
Enki-dog, a wild mutt with reindeer antlers
2/3 dog and 1/3 ottoman
Entered Khankhord
Entered Khampound
He hid upstairs
He hid in the dining room
Dad-Koresh found Enki-dog
They became great friends
The new friends went to Khan-apolis together
Where the great Pam-Bubba watched shows by the hundreds
Enki-dog stood and wagged his tail
Dad-Koresh shined his bluetooth
Pam-Bubba was asleep, so they took a rain check
But Enki-dog fell to the ground,
struck down by the gods.
Dad-Khoresh wept bitter tears saying,
"He who was my companion through naptime and dinner
is gone forever."
Explanation: This is based on the version of the Epic of Gilgamesh as told to Dathan by Captain Jean Luc Picard in the TNG episode "Darmok." Daddy had forbidden Katie from bringing other pets home. She found C.J. (Cracker Jack) and brought him home anyway. C.J. somehow knew the score and, if he walked into a room where Daddy was, would slowly back out and hide.
Eventually, when Daddy and Mommy left the Compound, C.J. went with them and he and Daddy became best buds.
