A Day in the Life of a Domestic Feline

For this week's posting, I'm sorry to say that I do not have the happier half of the poem I posted last week. It is still in the works. Instead, I have a short vignette on what my pet cats must be thinking while I think they're taking it easy. I hope you enjoy the silliness.

A Day in the Life of a Domestic Feline

From the outside, the domestic feline has an easy life.

All they need do is eat, sleep, and nap.

Sometimes the routine will change, adding playful antics.

However, this is only the human perspective.

For the feline, it is war.

It's constant struggling for dominance.

We think they're napping.

But they're waiting.

And then,

Attack!

Only the Good Die Young

I've been writing! Well, again this was an assignment but it is still an excuse for writing. I hope you enjoy them.

Only the Good Die Young
On March 14, Jeffery Langford of Ravensborough died at dawn.
He came to the hospital with a gunshot wound.
The doctors said that he should pull through.
Unfortunately, Jeffery reacted badly to some medication.
They never discovered what it was.
He got shot protecting someone.
A girl, I think.
She was alone.
He jumped.
Bang.
