Thanks God they died many years ago ! After reading this I won't buy a cure for my cats fleas, in comparison with old ones they have ants not fleas!

Great fleas have little fleas upon their backs to bite 'em,
And little fleas have lesser fleas, and so ad infinitum.
And the great fleas themselves, in turn, have greater fleas to go on;
While these again have greater still, and greater still, and so on.

Moral of the story: There's always some bloodsucker on your back.

I prefer Ogden Nash's poem "Fleas"

Adam Had 'em

Actually that poem may not actually have been first written by Nash, but he gets the credit most often.
