felinity

A Poem by Donald Meikle

staccato repetition reverberating in his ears
The rattle and the spinning flicker lights
Is it all a ploy to break him in his weakened sleepless state
A way to make him grab the bars and talk?
The kitten sits and wonders at the diapered prisoner's fate
For a feline fitful second then she walks
Away to find some other things to do
Cruelty and torture is really nothing new

That is a brilliant description of a cat, sensitively drawn. You kept me guessing until the end, great write, thank you for sharing!
