Feral Relapse

Today I am a paranoid cat,
unfurled fleece and claws

Master is ravenous!
Ze doesn’t care for my fur

doesn’t give rats

about my pretty patterns
my pounce
my purr

nor my ears

nor whiskers

or dainty diamond tip

Ze just wants to eat me,
wants to drink me!

Only cares about what’s inside,
as if I were confection

like a chocolate, rose-liqueur
