Pandemic Poem #4/ version 4
My cat is my only companion
as I kill time & negative thoughts
in this pandemic of the moment.
Sheltering in place
I confess there are 2 cats, but
the other one sits by himself
somewhere else.
This one sits with me
in the sunlight.
The sun feels
other-worldly.
Everything is different,
As if it's coming
from outside worlds,
but reality is
just outside the window.
Memories & almost
philosophical koans
proliferate my brain.
