Ode to My Companions
A short video of my kittens playing
By Karishma Hyder
How the hind legs remind of rabbits hopping
While the front paws can turn to claws
The mischief in their minds
Can be read
By the posing whiskers
Plastered to the fur; or
Protruding front
The pointed listening devices
Give away all
The fear of the unknown; or
The love of the known
They sit still
Like a statue
But the tips of the tails
Can’t be kept still
