and others like her

the cat with milky lips
and whiskers.
lean and long, awake
and yawning,
gently rubbing a wet
paw across a green eye
and ear.
she stiffens her back
then curls into a warm
ball of silky indifference.
she cares, but she
doesn't care.
you've made your peace
with this cat
and others like her.
