you
i saw you
you and that mouse
saw you and that bird
messing around in the kitchen
feathers everywhere and blood spots
saw prints and mud and fleas and worms
heard a racket in the middle of the night at three
i saw you sit on my knee and purr like nothing happened
stick your claws in my knee cap until it bled five dots
dribble down the side of a clean jumper gone crusty
breath like something died in your mouth
because it did and kakky bum planked
where ever it likes trip me up
why don't you so take
a swipe at me now
and again
you
