~ BLACK CAT ~

~ BLACK CAT ~

         " Omniscience flows into the intellect, and makes what we call genius."
            (Ralph Waldo Emerson)

A black cat came to me,
It spun,
On the marble intentions
Of its lineage.

Its secret, rebel, lightning,
An omen.
In the parallel nature of wind
It glinted.

Its blackness, re-baptized fluidity.
Mother Nature's prowler.

It pounced upon my ego,
Marked me, scarred me,
Excluded me.
No kiss.  No hiss.

It mangled my depression,
It licked my wounds,
Its sandpaper tongue
Left dark, and blank,
My previous impressions.

My mind is a criminal,
Cruel. Quixotic.
A danger
To itself.

A black cat came to me,
It spun,
On the marble intentions
Of its insanity.

It hisses...... now.... deep inside.

A twist
In the DNA
Of my
Alien
Lineage....

I love the spiritual context behind each piece you write, it’s captivating and enlightening.
I’m glad to have stumbled upon your poetry, it speaks to me on a level of spirituality I sometimes forget is there.
Please never stop sharing!
