Cats Play ThisA Poem by Phibby VenableCats Play This
A rapier blade felt in a moment
as I stand, opened to the thought
of how to feed upon the scraps
of early morning dumpster sacks
Some sharpness on my tail, a prick
I turn & face your grinning lips
& so the game is on again
The gentle prod of underbelly
The cautious slaps till you are ready
to pierce & roll me into place
where my ribs crack
& still my breath.
