unsolicited, unedited, unpublished

another completely unsolicited, unedited & unpublished poem, written between 1987-1989.
probably no updates for the rest of this week, unless i get an amazingly (and unexpected) easy day at work ... not bloody likely.


CATS FOR CARRIE

Cats that dance
that leap (for the simple enjoyment
of flight) and cry when no one
holds them as thunder rattles
the proverbial tin roof
Cats that smile
with their eyes that
dance (for the sheer
joy) and cry when no one
caresses their beauty ....
..... cats, yes,
they are in your eyes
in your heart
dancing as they do ....
