Cat's Valentine

Just as I cracked open

the blinds to peek out

at the quiet morning light

a cat in the middle

of the street leapt

on four pigeons feeding

close together all

of whom escaped

splashing into the air

as we watched

them fade and then he

looked over

directly at me

I felt our eyes click

before he turned

back again

swaying slowly

toward his house

having insured

nothing would ever

be said about this

regrettable event.
