USELESS IS AS USELESS DOESN’T

Have you ever had the eyes of a cat removed? I’m about to agree to this. The cat’s already blind and in pain according to the vet, and would be blind differently is all, with ghosts of eyes instead of his current milky orbs, but the thought of my yes still crushes my tender bits, the origami at the center of my breath.

My father saw this coming. Years ago, he set me on his knee and told me that everyone dies in pieces, an elbow or head at a time, then set me on his other knee and told me that wisteria can’t be killed, and roses, rust, that a smart man ignores the construction code and builds on a foundation of love and cumulus.

I’m sorry that he ran out of knees so quickly, that I’ve killed everyone I care about for years, imagined them dying or dead, and that I can’t actually hitchhike on starlight. I stick my thumb out but nothing, I’m still here and unable to lift the darkness of Wednesdays and Januaries off of Eve or operate on my mother’s heart with a firefly or go to Spain this minute and free bulls from men about to stab them beautifully, erotically, for the art of a terror so deep, only blood can speak its name.

Oh my sweet little cat

All day long you eat and get fat

In my bed you roll and play

But most of the time you sleep and lay

Softest of fur for me to pet

On my clothes is where it will get

🐱

Give me the meow

Give me all the meow

Give me the purr too

And a head-butt or two

So the wet salt on my skin

Will have disappeared by mornin'

Oh, sweet friend, give me the meow

Give me strength to live tomorrow

Oh please, don't stop now

Friend, give me the meow

Cat (11-1-24)

Like that of a stray cat,

I will hiss and lash

at a stray foreign touch

Impure and dirty

rubbing against my once pure fur

I was taught better

I should know better

than to fight what I deserve

Cat themed haiku for me to recite to/at my cat? 🐈

Kitty so purrfect, I can't deny this feline — Mewsic to my ears.

panther

a light patter of rain traveling up and down the hallway in the witching hours.

featureless in the lack of light that you camouflage into.

slinking between the shadows, you're a secret agent. you hide a greater mission.

and without you, we'd be vulnerable to the threats — the passing car, the fly in the window, and the ever-menacing empty glass, appropriately perched on a ledge.

Fat Cat (The Deist)

I am dead Three years, now. And the cat who outlived me (thank God) Sleeps on my spot on the couch As if it were still warm, As if I had only just stood up, And do not intend to return.

Alley Cat: I'm scared to say I love you to them Stray Dog: Why? Alley Cat: I'm worried they won't say it back Stray Dog: Say it anyway Alley Cat: This is why no one loves you, you give it out to easily Stray Dog: No one loves me because I love with my teeth

In the quiet corners of my heart, your memory prowls, A soft silhouette against the moon’s silvered shroud. Your whiskers, like delicate threads of stardust, Brushed against my fingertips, leaving traces of eternity.

The sun danced in your eyes, a golden waltz, As you basked in patches of warmth on the windowsill. Your purr, a gentle hymn, echoed through our home, A melody that still lingers, hauntingly sweet.

You chased shadows and dreams, a nimble spirit, Leaping across the room with grace and abandon. The rustle of leaves beneath your paws, A symphony of life, now etched in sepia tones.

Remember how we whispered secrets into the night? You, with your velvety ears perked, listening intently. I shared my hopes, my fears, my heartaches, And you, my dear friend, held them all without judgment.

The cardboard boxes you claimed as your own, The way you curled into impossible shapes, A testament to your feline magic— A creature both wild and tender.

And when the world grew heavy, you were my solace, A warm weight upon my chest, soothing storms. Your absence now, an ache that defies time, Yet I find solace in the constellations above.

Perhaps you’ve become a star, winking from afar, A celestial guardian watching over me. So here, in this quiet moment, I whisper: Thank you for sharing one of your nine lives with me.

Humans

They don't make sense

They say things, then act differently

I learn to code, and decode

And still I struggle to be human

Cats

They make sense

They do what they say they will do

They say how they feel

And they sit in the silence

That allows me to be me

Cats don't care what it is

To be a human

They just care

That I am
