The Housecat
Richard Lynch

I am a cat
That's where it's at
But none shall hear my roar
I roam the house
And chase the mouse
But there is nothing more
No hunger pangs
No sharpened fangs
No jungle prey I've chased
My water hole
Is just a bowl
My skills have gone to waste

"succinct... no wasted words... economy of movement...that's where it's at (G)" -- Jac Howard.
"We all have our place on this earth... Some of us are stifled.. all of us have choices... All of us could "settle" or rebel.... Many of us could change or be changed... Most of us should find joy in the moment... and appreciate our freedom of choice or we will be like the cat, locked into a life we did not choose... wasting our abilities when we could have put them to use... As human beings, we find the door to escape with our excuses... As animals we conform (with excuses) to be loved and sheltered ..." -- Helen, Marietta, GA, USA.
"I like this poem I love cats." -- Jeanette .
"Metaphor for people who don't dare chase their dreams; too risky. But the housecat has no choice. Very meaningful for those who are afraid..." -- Sandy Daley, Los Angeles, Calif, Orange.
