OF THE CAT PHILOSOPHY
the calmest chaos imaginable
will typically involve a cat
cute feline perpetrator
at the epicentre of
that riotous ripple effect
oh the mad difficulties we face
trying to communicate
with each other our two
barely complementary species
we humans projecting for all
we are worth on them
turning these
specialist little carnivours into
cuddly wizards (and
of course, witches)
so determined to
see ourselves
in them, them
in us
(yet another mirror
within a
mirror)
they watching us with that look
that says nothing, yet
says it
all
setting the bar so
low for us and yet still
so painfully failing
take an eternity of
fine
felid patience
to teach us
the cat
way
to help us
better digest
the perfect balance and alignment between
politics and praxis
that is the true revelation
of cat philosophy
