Thanks Leah! 💛
I love how each of them are doing their own thing. The woman seems almost melancholy, while the cat is just being a cat and trying to get comfortable.
Thanks, L.!
Yes, L said it well: both working to their own end. Beautiful image: “chase burning dust across the sky”
Thanks, Shaun!

Ah, will the cat be a purring bridge between Woman and Cowboy? I will miss them all!

This morning I heard on NPR a discussion of the Great American Road Trip — why and how. This poem can be added to the readings people recommended (Kerouac, McCarthy, etc.). Esp. like the way the second phrase softens the first.

Striking visual., and I love how the cat is creating a potential bridge.

Lovely. So visual!

I love the balance between the active eyes chasing “burning dust in the sky”and the cat massage.

Precious image!
