Poem: "Ghost Mittens"

Oct 15, 2009 00:31

This poem is from the October 13, 2009 Poetry Fishbowl. It was prompted by nekomata and is about ... a nekomata! You can read about this Japanese creature on the Obakemono Project. At heart, a monster cat is still a cat. This poem was sponsored by dormouse_in_tea.

I figured, cats with magical powers are still cats. Utterly amoral and with a love of mayhem that knows no bounds, except perhaps the edge of a cozy sunbeam.

Yeah, I'm a T.S. Elliot fan.

Ah. I never read that. I was thinking of the play "Cats." Which I also never saw.
