Oh, I like the title, because it has two meanings. Especially with the way your words caress the page. Inspiration is everywhere. :) Brandy

I don't think I've ever inspired anyone before, knowingly anyway, THANK YOU Mat, and Schrodinger is right up my street as you've obviously gathered, I'm honoured Mat, as for the cat, he's been in that box dead and alive for ages now so giddily gawking is genius, great poem, thanks again

Well I like this, the attributed inspiration and the tribute aspect - lovely! Edit: can you meow with one syllable? I'm going to say yes :)

That question mark is inspired :)

Not sure about the syllable but you inspired me to change the meow to a question:)

My god you made me consider this. Full disclosure, I woke up early this morning and the first thing that came to mind when thinking about this is the Meow has to be a question- dead or alive?- glad you responded thank you for reading
