You cannot convince me that diluc doesn't write poetry, or at least keeps a diary. He is so dramatic, have you heard how this man talks? He's a poet in private and it's a secret he'll (try to) keep to his grave.

In Honor of Taffy
Taffy, the topaz-colored cat, Thinks now of this and now of that, But chiefly of his meals. Asparagus, and cream, and fish, Are objects of his Freudian wish; What you don't give, he steals.
His gallant heart is strongly stirred By clink of plate or flight of bird, He has a plumy tail; At night he treads on stealthy pad As merry as Sir Galahad A-seeking of the Grail. His amiable amber eyes Are very friendly, very wise; Like Buddha, grave and fat, He sits, regardless of applause, And thinking, as he kneads his paws, What fun to be a cat! by Christopher Morley

It can be easy to forget that love is just as easily violent as it is soft.
It’s intensity drives us to our knees, makes us howl and weep, turns our bodies into glass bottles trying to contain tsunamis.
Love makes us want to carve off parts of ourselves happily for the comfort of another.
It can bring equal parts ecstasy and agony and never have I felt more alive than when I am loving.

Ngl I love Mistoffelees being the worst cat to own so much. Like yea yea ik “Tugger is overly picky and inconvenient”, “Macavity exists” and “Mungo and Rump will destroy your house” but naur Misto out here making his owner think they’re delusional asf
Can you imagine just?
“But his voice has been heard on the roof When he was curled up by the fire”
“You have seen it one moment, and then it is gone! But you find it next week lying out on the lawn.”
“And I've known the family to call, Him in from the garden for hours. When he was asleep in the hall”

I think joe’s strategy at this point is “create a cat-based singularity”. like, cub catalyst levels of cats. he just did an impressive monologue/rant about how many cats he needs to make. he got called a monster and nodded for like, a full several seconds before going “yeah basically”. I think this is the joe hills villain arc???

poetry on this hellsite is wild. liek there are "my nam is cat" poems that hand your heart a little lantern to warm it up and there are "what is daughterhood but a matryoshka of pain nestled in your ribcage? you open it up and inside is your mother's pain and her mother's and hers and hers. do you dread the day you build your daughter her own?" poems that tell you you'll cry yourself to sleep tonight

The cycle of the poet
I saw the first snow fall of the new winter
I am reminded of all the words I wrote before
The words do not fall as easy anymore
Still, there is always the pull in my chest, the longing
I wish I could still be falling
I watched the snow fall outside my grandads house
I am reminded of a different life from long ago
The poet inside might be dying
I am standing by their bedside in a distant house
I am holding their hand
Outside, the snow is steady falling
I can still hear the words being whispered to me
There’s a snow globe melting on the mantlepiece
The familiar cat has curled her see-through body in front of the fire
I have read all the dusty books on the shelves
I would always end up here,
In the last homely house in the dark, in the snow
The last light to guide the ghosts home
The solitary oasis at the end of the world
I lived my life with the noise of waves in my head
I did not sail the world, but you never came back
Still, the clouds always told your story
For you, I write with the salt water snow in the light of the moon
Alone at the bedside of the last poet
I embrace my bruised body
I watch the snow fall, outside and inside my head
I had never cried like that before
I warm my hands to a hot mug
There’s a cold in my heart
It’s the dread of you leaving
I don’t know if I can hear the words on my own
My hands might be freezing
I watched you pick up a pen countless times, again and again
I carefully observed the movements you made
Every dot, every line is etched in my brain
I so deeply wish we could be the same
That I could still be the same
I don’t know how to translate the images of snow falling, ghosts calling, my bodily aches, onto the page
Alone in my head I don’t know what to say
When the whispers tell me of distant waves, winter days, the beauty of me
I don’t know if I can tend to the house on my own
I sit by your bedside, I am holding your hand
The cat is asleep at your feet
The last candle lights up the room
The dark is outside the windows
The snow is still falling
I know this is the last night
Your lips are not moving
But I can hear your voice
Giving me your last wisdom
For me to be you
For me to be me
You tell me, you urge me, hopefully,
Be honest
The candle burns out
I cry in the silence
I find my shovel and my coat
In the dark, in the snow, I dig a hole
Standing over your last resting place
I promise you
I’ll be honest
I close the door behind me
Shutting out the the snow and the dark
I sit down at the desk
I pick up your pen
The light of a single candle fills the room
I turn around to see a child standing there
I turn back to the desk
I put the pen on the paper and start to write
My first wisdom for you, child: be honest

Webby's Promise - A Hatchetfield Villanelle
The Queen in White spins her fragile, new Web
The Witchwood contains an old magic spell
Woven through the trees lies spider's silk thread
Whispers from the tree-people, lives long dead
To sing songs to prophets whose dreams they quell
The Queen in White spins her fragile, new Web
Townsfolk are filled with a deep fear and dread
Called to worship by the clanging of bells
Woven through the trees lies spider's silk thread
Though time has past, the soil is still stained red
Fueled by the poor souls the town had to sell
The Queen in White spins her fragile, new Web
Soft moss on which weary seers lay their head
Creatures hide in caves, a safe place to dwell
Woven through the trees lies spider's silk thread
Seep into the ground where blood has been bled
Stand, protector, over the gates to hell
The Queen in White spins her fragile, new Web
Woven through the trees lies spider's silk thread

Im not supposed to be this
A poem about different types of dysphoria I have experienced by Ev or @th4t-r4nd0m-th3r14n
Im not supposed to be this
An almost adult human
Im supposed to be puppy
Playful and joyful, happy to meet people both new and old
Im not supposed to be this
A person in school
Im supposed to be house cat
Who loves laying in cardboard boxes and in the sun, loves catnip and dies of old age at 17 years old
Im not supposed to be this
A person able to get a job
Im supposed to be pet bunny
Hopping around the house and hiding from all but a few people, pampered with treats and dies old at 6 years of age
Im not supposed to be this
A lady expected to be pretty, perfect, and responsible at all times
Im supposed to be boy
Playing and joking with his friends all the time
