The Story of the Cat That Drank the Sea - Poem By Riyas Qurana

The drop that was sucked this afternoon was the last one. The sea went dry. From the moment the hungry cat in the painting transferred the sea into its stomach the black and white picture turned blue. The sea jumps from one branch to the other. In the gentle warmth of the kitchen sleeps the sea with soft undulating waves. A boy relentlessly chases away the sea. The sea with its tail bouncing, rushes into the street only to be hit by a bus and lies injured on the street. The sea wobbles on the street with waves murmuring softly, softly. I redraw the cat in the painting. The strokes turn into waves Gushing all over the walls.
