How does my brain work?
I am cat: inscrutable -
None of your business.
If you want to know
What your pet is thinking, well,
Get yourself a dog!
I keep my secrets:
I, cat, have dignity, a
Dog can never match

I am sleepy now.
I am so close to myself.
It's my tail that lies.
Scrawny sparrows in
the garden. I can't catch them.
My tail doesn't agree.
Fat German sparrow
One day you'll be caught by an
Abyssinian Cat
(sorry there are no scrawny sparrows around here -I noticed when I looked up "scrawny" in the dictionary)

on sunday i spent
the day sleeping in dad's lap-
while he watches sports
--------
i roll over to
get comfortable, it's time
to scratch my belly
--------
slowly my purr turns
into a snore that my dad
finds really funny
-------
asleep my pink nose
ears, paws make me kinda cute,
but when i'm awake....
-------
when i wake up i
look at dad, stretch and go in
search of my food dish
-------
i eat like a pig
drink and go to the potty
then i jump back on
-------
i like sundays the
most, i get to sleep in the
best spot in the world

i woke up today
staring into the yellow
eyes of a vulture
huge yellow hungry
eyes, we stare at each other-
make your move creature..
a vulture dropping
my books on my head-LOOK OUT!
one more paperback...
yellow eyes on a
white vulture? i look closely-
i see white fur!
fur not feathers on
this creature perched right above
my pillows and head
i look closer and
see it's not a vulture-it's
my cat sitting there
just a silly cat
pretending he's a vulture
he just wants his food
I better wake up
and feed this cat, paperback
books can really hurt!
a vulture hovers
over my bed it drops glass
pearls and craves mangoes
hovering vulture
do you want me to get up
or turn into food
the well-fed vulture
changes beak to fur and digs
a lair in the bed
my vulture alarm clock
needs to be fed and watered
at least twice a day
late saturday night
mom and dad in high spirits
let's stay up and play
sunday afternoon
dinos snarl in the tv
too lazy to watch
at night, i cannot
run in my dreams-the cat is
asleep on my feet
a baby sphinx sleeps
at the foot of my warm bed
watching the night pass
noble cat, what do
you see at night? stars? planets?
do you watch me sleep?
do you listen for
sounds of the planet resting?
or neighborhood cats?
during the night i
hear you eating drinking and
patrolling the house
or do you just make
sure i wake up when you jump
back into the bed?
in the empty house
a cat materializes
where do you come from
in the middle of the
carpet sits Filou - his look
comes from fairyland
Richard, Barbara,
Karen, our poets of note
Expose our felines.
lailamara thanks
for starting this thread that now
flowers for weeks
i have abandoned
my dad's lap for that warm spot
near the fireplace
but from time to time
i have to come back and stretch
upon his belly
crazy big ones
they say it's christmas all i
see is exhaustion
gifts cards and contracts
due for this year -and no time
for cuddling with me
thanx Richard you thought
of cats and warm places my
mom forgot this week
i curl up in front
of the couch, basking in the
warmth of the fire
---------
the fire does not scare
me, the orange monster spits,
coughs, hisses at me
-------
i have made my peace
with the orange monster that
lives in the wall box
-------
i am brave enough
to sleep next to the monster,
my dad keeps me safe!
