Impressive poem! Somehow, cannot escape metaphorical meaning, though people's cats may not be easy recognizable.

Nick, Greetings from Bombay. I am glad that you liked my poem on the Sattal Lake. I very much value your comments, particularly after I read two of your poems for first time (The Saddest Chicken and 2 Chickens) and this one. I am very happy that I have discovered you on poemhunter. In the next few days, I will look forward to reading and enjoying ALL your poems. You are an excellent poet and have a tremendous sense of humour. Best regards.- Prakash Yardi from Bombay
