catwalk

what might
befall
behappen
& become

o best beloved

to this
wildest
of all
wild animals

who walks
by himself

all places
alike
unto him

let’s make a
little magic

a woman
wise
maybe as
wise as
a cat is
wild

maybe
a little
wild
as well

o best beloved

hear
attend
& listen

to a little
singing
magic

of wild tales
in wild woods

and if i say
a word
of praise

as you
walk away
in all
places

will you
come
into this
cave?

and if
i coo &
compliment
you a time
or two

will you
curl
beside
this fire?

and if
you get
a word
or three
from me

clever
cat

will you
keep
your
wild way

when
the moon
wakes
& night
shakes
wild
trees

but still
stay
a little
in the
day

anyway?
