"Daydreamer" by Kim Roberti
The cat
lies down in
without moving for so
and then turn her head
and turn
her back to me and
lick her paw again as if
It hasn't
all the time in the world
The cat
knows where flies die
She hears
the music of the spheres and
the hum in the wires of houses
and the hum of the universe
in interstellar spaces
prefers domestic places
