Summer and cat
My cat disappeared
Last night
No, there was no rain
Or thunderstorms
Nor any misunderstanding
Between the two
Of us.
She ate well
And rubbed herself
Once against my
Leg, then jumped
Through the night window
I slept sweating in
Dreams
The heat of the earth
Was killing
And the power supply
Was erratic
The day after, while
Watering the bushes
I found her perfectly
Perched upon
A tree branch
Meditating on the
Summer afternoon
Heat.
