Cat Call
I dreamed last night a calico cat
Scampered up to me
And my big, drooling, happy dog
Of a life!
Was it you?
If so, I badly want to say your name,
But won’t,
So, cat…
Why your lame leg
Why’d you pay no mind
To the hindered, big, back foot of you
What do you wish I’d leave behind
And pay no mind to, too?
Peace
With what happened
With what is no more
With what cannot ever be
With that there’ll be flowers again
Is mine to decide
Passed
A film
About nothing
Moving as a bother
A one-dimensional why
Before your prisoner’s eyes
Why have thee this lot
Why a circumstance
Why nuisance
A test
Distance
What can you tell me
About letting go
About bravadoWhen do you see me
From a distance at last
From a free and clear pastIt’s time
Tell me
Never mind
My background’s back there.
