Bioburden

Send a sample to the Berkeley Labs because
I have a heart murmur now, not to mention
My lungs are filled with dark romantic dander
From the double-pawed posse of calico cats
Who warded off sea monsters on trips to New Bedford,
In between sleeping and catching fish for snack.
Had a hunch Melville was a Leo, too,
And so he is according to the wiki.
