Cat,Woman, and Man
Kenneth W. Anderson, Jr.
They sat closely to each other
underneath the shade
of long yellows
and a few lingering greens.
The man arched his back,
stretched and yawned,
finally resting against the old willow.
The woman placed her head upon his chest,
listening.
The evening breeze carried his whispers to her
and she in return lovingly scratched his belly.
And in the restless distance
sat her fat cat,
glaring,
and waiting.
