TOUGH CAT
It's been a few weeks - so long I had to reset my password on Blogger.
I've been working on 2 longer poems, maybe I'll post them next week.
In the meantime, another one-off.
TOUGH CAT
Pink cut spots on my left hand
Like acne dots on a young man
With Max the cat, who can be tough
The fault is mine for playing rough
Yes his claws all need a trim
And surely I'll clip him again
But I don't think it any sin
To catlike grasp and claw at him
He grabs my hand and pulls clamped down
With back feet kicking all around
He makes a tough cat growling sound
As I don't mind he sinks claws in
