The slow Alley cat

The slow Alley cat

The alley cat
Wakes up alone, again
Does the same dance
ย each morning
Stretches
Scratches the southern hunger
Meows at the day ย ย ย ย ย 
moves in shadows
like a restless wind
Tongue licks lips
needing to feed
and a good hunter?
Indeed!
With chameleon skills
A soulless
Fetching
carnivore ย ย ย ย ย 
Butย  not too bright
Can only hunt
ย ย slow
ย Friendly
mice

cryptic, but interesting comment sparrowsong, alley cats I've found are often,ย wildย  unpredictable and not very clean, best to keep away from them, that is the safest route, lol, thanks again for commenting

thank you Tina, yes this one was inspired by an alleycat with unusual tendencies, lol, I like cats more than dogs, you can pet them and theyย enjoy it, but dogs look at me and bark, lol, my aura seems to bring cats comfort, who knows, glad you like the poem my friend, from jolly ole England, cheers
