Impromptu
cliche rain
pitter pats
but the cat
has claws
so walks
with a rasp
across the
wooden
floors
on all
fours she
brings me a
squeeze toy she
pleases and teases
herself with but i admit
it's plastic and stiff and doesn't
fit to my liking likely only to lick
to taste where 'twas dipped and so
sniff there and where my
fingers were that i
find flesh for to
squeeze and
hear the
sound of
another
play toy
that
doesn't
meow
but now
softly
sounds
purring
burying
me in her
mound
