{Official} Star Trek Trivia #20

 

*******************

This is one of those ‘must have a hard copy of’ poems

 

Felis Cattus,

 

is your taxonomic nomenclature,

an endothermic quadruped carnivorous by nature?

 

Your visual, olfactory and auditory senses

contribute to your hunting skills, and natural defenses.

 

I find myself intrigued by your subvocal oscillations,

a singular development of cat communications

 

that obviates your basic hedonistic predilection

for a rhythmic stroking of your fur, to demonstrate affection.

 

A tail is quite essential for your acrobatic talents;

you would not be so agile if you lacked its counterbalance.

 

And when not being utilized to aide in locomotion,

it often serves to illustrate the state of your emotion.

 

O Spot,

the complex levels of behaviour you display

connote a fairly well-developed cognitive array.

 

And though you are not sentient,

Spot,

and do not comprehend,

I nonetheless consider you a true and valued friend

What is the name of this poem?

 

And if it were me I almost would put it up with “The Raven”! Who wrote that? And what line comes up a lot in it? (Near the end!)

 

*******************

 

A. Sentient Spot

B. Dedication To Spot

C. Friend Of Spot

D. Ode To Spot

E. Observant Of Spot

 

1. Edgar Allan Poe, “Quote the Raven, ‘Nevermore’”

2. Edgar Allan Poe, “Only this and nothing more”

3. Edgar Allan Poe, “Nameless here forevermore”

4. Walt Whitmen, “is nothing more”

5. None of the above (on this section - #s)

 

 

Note: First answer what the title is then the second/third question

Example) If it is A and 1, then your answer would be “A1”

 

Answering: Send myself a private message (do not answer here!)

 

By the way my favorite poem is “The Raven”.

What’s your favorite? (Or favorite poet?)

 

Points: 5
