• To Koshari, the new kitten – a poem

  
  

   

  
  

  Uncertain legs, you walk the world.

  
  

  Eyes wide with awe, you see.

  
  

  My special drawer, you stole a sock,

  
  

  And stole my heart from me.

  
  

   

  
  

  Author’s note.  Nice thing about poetry, you can mangle the hell out of syntax and stuff and sort of get away with it.  In this one, I sought to capture some of the essence of kittenicity and the love they inspire in us humans in as few words as possible.
