Premium Member Get Yourself a Big Black Cat To Cancel Out Bad Luck
If there should be a pot hole as deep as Satan’s pit
appearing as I’m driving, I’d run right over it!

My husband’s luck is worse than mine, but we’re a package deal.
So every bad thing that befalls him, I can also feel!

One day I lost my...

There Was a Black Cat In Miami
There was a Black Cat in Miami

There was a Black Cat in Miami
Whose owners were told he’s Siami
But he’s just a Black Cat
Nothing special about that
Disappointed those folks of Miami...

Bagheera - the Black Cat
Black softness nestles in his sheen so fab
as warm purrs vibrate his feline aura
Gash-like, a red neck-sash swings a gleaming
heart-shaped pendant, swaying a dangled flash.
Ebon stretches as the midnight creature
elongating his compacted frame, lithe.
Reaching, he uncurls a bounding jaguar
awake to the moon’s abracadabra

Premium Member Black Cat So Sweet and Dear
One Christmas, hubbie lost his job,
and we were feeling sad
when at the pound, we found a cat
that helped me to feel glad.

We never knew what age she was.
All we knew was that
she’d lived with dogs and had green eyes
and was a little fat!

Although her name...

When a black cat looks at a red moon
Witches and howlets will there be soon
So put on your costume and be fleet
Go about, to seek your trick or treat...

Premium Member Black Cat
I've never ever in my life liked any cats,
I preferred to live, rather, amidst grain-field-rats;
And black cats, all the more, have remained omens, bad,
To see one, is enough to turn the day so sad...!

My sweetheart, though knowing me well, did not know why,
Brought one; blackest...

"BLACK CAT"



SILENCE
prowls on soft paws 
with sharp claws
Cutting up the 
Middle Road
Dark shadow moves 
SILIENCE
In absentia 
Empty Absynthe
Puncture wounds
Cold wind blows
Over tracks
Skids softly
like warm 
gants de Suède
on 
Poets’ Row
Rat goes 
Rat goes
Red scream 
scarlet ribbons 
LIFE
flows
Le Mort
blushes colour
a trite persuade
different streets
different gutters
Torn canvas sheets
contained between
prison...

Premium Member The Black Cat and the Butterfly
The little black cat with eyes of olive green,
Her fur like a shadow with a sunshine sheen,

A flutter of his orange wings carries that monarch in the breeze,
As he mimics an autumn leaf floating around with great ease,

He feels right at home in a cloudless...

Premium Member Black Cat Green Eyes Most Evil
Black Cat hath the coldest green eyes of most hideous evil
Which chilleth my blood, causeth me the greatest upheaval;
Darkness doth pervade this creature’s most gruesome gaze
Giveth me unbridled terror, leaveth my soul in an utter haze; 
Lucifer himself giveth this black demon animal its dark...

The Black Cat
The sky  is stark, the air is cool and still
The black cat’s  run, the birds unfold all day
I sit  down here and with my totty pray
Ye cast o’ foolish thoughts, you raped my will.
We’ve  each enraged the bureaucratic mill.
Oh frigid purse,...

The Story of a Fat Black Cat
The fat black cat was lazy.--but he was loved. 
He had a favourite place to sleep--up above. 
High up in the ganghut tree--  on a stump. 
He would struggle up it daily-- he was plump. 

He had several whiskers missing-- due to fights. 
He...

Premium Member Black Cat's Wild Adventure
So, once upon a time, there was a cat
that had no real home, and all alone,
she'd wander here and there amid the yards
in a community with lovely lawns
and shady trees and bushes that gave her
some shelter from the sun and pouring rain.

She'd go from house...
