Cat Haikus

[davidinalameda]

didn’t write these; it was in a group email. I thought you’d like them.



The food in my bowl

Is old, and more to the point

Contains no tuna.

----



So you want to play.

Will I claw at dancing string?

Your ankle's closer.

----



There's no dignity

In being sick - which is why

I don't tell you where.

----



Seeking solitude

I am locked in the closet.

For once I need you.

----



Tiny can, dumped in

Plastic bowl. Presentation,

One star; service: none.

----



Am I in your way?

You seem to have it backwards:

This pillow's taken.

----



Your mouth is moving;

Up and down, emitting noise.

I've lost interest.

----



The dog wags his tail,

Seeking approval. See mine?

Different message.

----



My brain: walnut-sized.

Yours: largest among primates.

Yet, who leaves for work?

----



Most problems can be

Ignored. The more difficult

Ones can be slept through.

----



My affection is conditional.

Don't stand up,

It's your lap I love

----



Cats can't steal the breath

Of children. But if my tail's

Pulled again, I'll learn.

----



I don't mind being

Teased, any more than you mind

A skin graft or two.

----



So you call this thing

Your "cat carrier." I call

These my "blades of death."

----



Toy mice, dancing yarn

Meowing sounds.

I'm convinced: You're an idiot.

3. LOL! Those are wonderful and so clever!

:rofl:

I had to come over here from GD. I sparked a firestorm and attracted trolls and freepers. :scared: :hide:

edit: I just love these new smilies!
