a stray cat
i saw this cat tonight. it was sitting under a car, in the saga parking lot right outside wallace (the journalism/library building). everytime someone walked within sight, the cat yowled. it absolutely screamed. it was so loud. and it didnt matter if that person was a guy, a girl, pretty, fat. the cat meowed at everyone.
i walked by and the cat cried at me. i stopped, and he came over, and rubbed against my legs. i sat down and petted him for a while.
eventually i got up and walked to my car and left. the cat started wailing again, this time only facing me. he watched me all the way out of parking lot from the edge of the sidealk, slightly shaded by the car. i heard it cry until i had driven out of the parking lot and turned up my music.
"do you hold,
the phone when youre alone
imagine that it rings
then hold it to your ear
and wish that i was there
to sing you off to sleep
be with you in your dreams"
sometimes i feel like that cat.
