cat and mouse

your cat
comes in from
being gone
for several days
and brings
you a mouse.
you tell her thank
you as she lays it
at your feet.
you go get her
a treat and bowl
of cold milk
which makes her
purr and stare
into your eyes
longingly. but
this is as far as
it will go.
she's a cat
and you, well
you're not a cat.
