WHAT SHE SAID
WHAT SHE SAID
Silence descended
upon the house.
The too loud tick tocks
from the old clock: stopped.'
As if, Time had vanished.
Reality,Β Β been banished.
The night shed itself
snowflake by snow flake
until the night had been
covered up with quiet.
Somewhere a mouse
paused.
He could see
nothing.
Nothing.
But, her.
He awaited her
answer with cliched
baited breath.
Her luscious lovely lips
parted almost
in a slow motion trope
as she said:
"Meow!"
"Meow!
meowed the cat.
She laughed.
Her laughter...
. . .his answer.
