i was once
a cat on a lap
lover
your hand on my
head, ears squashed
flat. and my
purr
like dry leaves
falling
stripped us naked
my fur
like soft grass
growing
kept us warm
and you,
my deciduous love
like a tall tree growing
held me high
a cat caught in a branch
sadly knowing
he must
land
on his feet
