a little fish swimming
round attracts a curious cat
fish says
I can’t breathe
big cat likes that
and replies come on out
play with me
as he pulls at the seams
of the tank and water
oozes out
smiling
delighted with himself
I’ve made my catch for the day
lying in his filthy mess
repeating over and over
I can’t breathe
cat licks its paw
saying oh, boo hoo!

I love the directions you go in. Another type next week. You'll have conversation poems down, should you ever want dialogue in a poem :-)
ReplyDeleteI enjoy your prompts Margo, though, they can be challenging:)
ReplyDeleteSo clever. Good use of dialogue!
ReplyDeleteBoo hoo! Good one!
ReplyDeleteI don't think kitty is entirely sincere! lol
ReplyDeleteAnnell, it simply seemed to fit:)
ReplyDeleteWell, Shay, one never knows about those darn kitties;)
ReplyDeleteThanks Madeleine, I'm trying this style and it is turning out some interesting results.
