Sound of Mind and Body
Friday, 20 July 2012
She says she’s sound of mind and body, and I say “what does that sound like?”
And my cat looks like she’s passing through when in fact she’s passing away.
She gives me that look that says “look—don’t look at me that way.
Let me sit at the edge of the shade.
And let me quietly fade.”
And then she says “Let’s make a double bill, we could have a lot of fun.”
Well it’s okay for you, Miss Kitty, you get nine of these and I get just the one.
