Poem
Bob, the cat, lives in the room number 13 of the sixth avenue. He likes fish, rollercoaster, ice cream cones and Sunday papers. He's an artist. He's a painter. When people ask him about his latest work, he answers: "I'm painting the meaning of life. I'm coloring it black, but my inner self keeps telling me it's green." He has gothic way of seeing materials and articles. He wishes everyone to speak in fragments of literary lyrics, and then he would spend all his days tangling these fragments making an abstract form out of a puzzle. He goes for a walk before breakfast; walking on two legs, wearing a leather jacket, and whistling after big ass women are his forte. He passes Mr. Pumpkin floral shop, turns into the eighth avenue, and enters his favorite café called "Your Favorite Café". He sits on the second chair at the second table, and orders a coffee: "Black, dark and bitter like a cat's soul", he says to the waiter. He sits there all morning, sipping his black coffee, dreaming about how it would be if his past, present and future selves exist together, thinking in sync, and communicating through a common medium of artistic sense, saying words in the silence notes of Van Gogh. He dances all the way home. If anyone cares to ask, he says: "I'm drunk in Coffea Arabica, a perfect weed to make you tantalize with Arabian dreams and gives your nerves a breakdown." Dancing along the pavements, he counts the roses in beats. One, two, three, four… two, two, three, four… three, two, three, four, and so on. The number of roses is directly proportional to the number of steps he's gonna salsa in the bathroom. He sits on the toilet bowl, and deciphers the problems with human rights. He stands on one leg on the bathroom floor, with arms spread like hugging the air, mouth wide opens. He squeaks like a mouse and tries to hop like a rabbit. He falls hard, crashing the cold bathroom tiles. He bleeds red like the color red. He says "Perfect". He runs into the bedroom. There stands his actual latest work, the heart of a vampire, portraying himself with a deadly cat fangs and a wicked mustache. He splashes his blood all over the painting, and shouts "eureka". He starts to hum Yankee Doodle through his nose. He falls asleep, and dreams about dinner. "Scramble eggs with tomatoes".
