name that cat

you get an e mail
from marsha, someone
that you haven't
seen or talked to
in over a year.
I am stuck in costa rica
it says.
someone has stolen
my phone, my purse,
my money.
you are the only
person I could contact.
can you please wire
me a few thousand
dollars to this account.
I will pay you back
as soon as I return.
I am stranded and broke.
I am at the end
of my rope. please help
me. you are the only
one who seems to give
a damn about me.
okay. you say,
writing back. sure,
but first tell me
the name of my cat.
she must have made it
home, because you
never heard from her
after that.
