the old cat in the window

3 posts in this topic

once i could be 

once to be tense and tarrow

such is not this afternoon

i struggle to carry the weight of my body

ive done my time, lord

ive done it, if you please


my bones hurt, most of them are damaged over the experience of my tale

id like to smoke my pipe, just sit beside a fire, my Lord.

I can sing you some songs

you'd find that they wont sound real

but once upon a time,

i could carry a glow to the eye  of the white tail and the sparrow sang of me


it was in the time of legends, 

that they told me i was born too soon

and they told me this as i was only born yesterday

they don't know what I told the wind, they don't know what I said


i begged the beetles to stay their hunger

i prayed the sun would never set

i heard the songs of my prey


none would have it

none

and then i was found dead
