Trying To Start The Cat Poem by alexander j watt

Trying To Start The Cat

Rating: 5.0


the kitten won’t play today

Rose strokes it and fires the rumble tum

but peter's out

a leap – an arched back

an orchestrated flop to one side

he lies between us

like a little apostrophe

it is an invented word

You should read my poem 'The Hunter'. I think you might like it. You had an interesting ending. Greenwolfe 1962
