Notes About The Poem

The Cat's Polka-Dot Pajamas

My cat, Chester, stopped mid-purr,  
donning plush polka-dot fur.
'Twas then that he upspoke, 
"Let's have ourselves a toke". 
The rest is just a blur.

Yup, I think maybe I was still in stoner mode from Charle's contest. I think my brain is stoned a lot and I'm lucky because I don't have to take drugs.

Hello David, as always this one gave me a good laugh. Only you could take a cat in polka-dot pajamas and turn it into a five-line fever dream. Light, quick, and wonderfully absurd. Blessings, Daniel
