felinityA 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 © 2009 Donald Meikle |
