mouse, wet in cat spit, still alive.
my black cat crosses the landing.
new neighbor has a cat inside.
new neighbor has put out
a welcome mat,
now with a spot of blood dropped by.
stolen flower pot,
great dirt left
covering litter
Such an evocative verse … the heat of the day cooling, parents calling it’s time to come inside and children begging for just five more minutes of playtime. I find myself starting this memory then drifting into more.
