Cat Escaping! Poem by Dorsey Baker

He met her as he was
walking down a bitter street
she was a cat
her extra
ordinary skills
so impressive!
he enjoyed watching her
as she walked walls
and up on rooftop leaps
she moved so gracefully
her claws razor sharp
she would carve out fear!
in anyone or anything
that she felt a threat
to her
I was deep demons in
her dark mournful
beautiful eyes!
she was good at tricks
with human emotion
moving upon
all fours
she escaped!
