Fog...
From an idea suggested by Pharaohnica
And with a tip of that cat to
Carl Sandburg and Robert Frost
Invisible to radar, mizzle falls
Itself making the distance invisible
Sandburg said that fog creeps in on little cat feet
But rain-fog is sometimes the entire cat
And if you walk outside into the cat
Beyond the cat, the paws, what will you find
Perhaps, like Schrodinger, the cat is not
But then again, like you, maybe it is
The mystery is lovely, dark, and deep
But we have chores to tend, and they won’t keep

No, Mr. Sandburg
The fog doesn’t come on little cat feet
It stinks and slinks across the fields
Maybe Grendel creeps within it -
He wants to eat us before dawn
