Kool Kat

By Richard L. Provencher

Sun, 19 May 2019
  • 537 reads
 

A traffic tie-up

corner of Prince and

Forest. Now he patiently

awaits the jumble

of metal and rubber

to dis-engage

from paths created by

streaks of white.

 

Swipes his hair back

hands to pocket

jeans kinda tight and sleek

like a wolf he

surveys an unfettered

scene – all is well

as he scoots to a new view.
