I wish I could be as carefree and wild
But I got cat class, and I got cat style.~Brian Setzer
I’m smitten with these kittens even
though my allergies declare I must go.
They weave and purr and curl and seize my pen.
They flit away and then they’re back again.
A walk in a dark hallway is a game
I lose. They pounce with fervor. It’s a shame
that I chose black today. This white one sheds
and once pristine, my sweater provokes dread.
My intuition told me not to stay
but love convinced me, just another day.
And now, quite compromised, I gasp and wheeze.
Breath is the master now I aim to please.
Inspired by: Smitten, Flit and Fervor. I played Stray Cat Strut for the kittens this morning and they were wild for it.
