Cat Haiku

[gerbil runner]

You never feed me.

Perhaps I'll sleep on your face.

That will sure show you.

I need a new toy.

Tail of black dog keeps good time.

Pounce! Good dog! Good dog!

The rule for today:

Touch my tail, I shred your hand.

New rule tomorrow.

In deep sleep hear sound;

Cat vomit hairball somewhere.

Will find in morning.

Grace personified,

I leap into the window.

I meant to do that.

Blur of motion. then--

Silence, me, a paper bag.

What is so funny?

The mighty hunter

Returns with gifts of plump mice--

Your foot just squashed one.

You're always typing.

Well, let's see you ignore my

sitting on your hands.

My small cardboard box.

You cannot see me if I

can just hide my head.

Kitty like plastic.

Confuses for litter box.

Don't leave tarp around.

Small brave carnivores

Kill pine cones and mosquitoes

Fear vacuum cleaner

Want to trim my claws?

Don't even think about it!

My yowls will wake dead.

I want to be close

To you. Can I fit my head

Inside your armpit?

Wanna go outside.

Oh, no! Help! I got outside!

Let me back inside!

Humans are so strange.

Mine lies still in bed, then screams!

My claws aren't that sharp. . .

Cats meow out of angst

"Thumbs! If only we had thumbs!

We could break so much!"

Litter box not here.

You must have moved it again.

I'll poop in the sink.
