Cat Hair Everywhere

Her indifferent warmth in my lap,
Idles on shuffle.
Joe tells me:

He is his father’s son
—his shadow weights a ton.

Pale gray tents the sky.
Rains are coming;
aching knee.

Birds know when to fly,
so why don’t I?

Angry squeals of punk guitar
echo from a past
that never was.

She stretches out a claw—
gentle taloned paw.
