This is a poem, about a character I know, Moving so silently, as if air were her toes An orange flash in the corner of my eye, Hear the bash of something falling, In the middle of the night
She stalks the bugs that float past my waist Jumping through the air, killing, Leaving nothing to be traced A little satisfaction, before she washes her face But before she takes her nap, there's flies to be chased
I hold this girl close to my heart, She keeps my company, when I write my poems Sitting on my lap, in the darkest of the dark If you havent figured out, who this poem is about, The honor goes out, to my feline friend The one, who sits at my feet, and calls again
