Spilled Milk
By Crush_With_Eyeliner
Drink milk.
Kitten's paw;
grey-ish
blur;
red
and
buzzing.
When I getÂ
home
I will
play
with
the cats
for
hours.
It will
(inevitably)
be lost
on them.
On myself,
as well.

I would have just said, "grey" as opposed to "grey-ish" but otherwise and regardless, what a lovely piece

I play with the cats for hours as well. One of them (almost) enjoys playing fetch. Our time is in a hurry...it is often lost on us...to us. Might as well enjoy it. My cats won't touch milk, but an appropriate title. Always love your snippets of wit.

God does not subtract from the life of a man, the days spent fishing (old Cuban saying). Perhaps something similar afoot here with the kitties? Thank you for this.

The title is so fitting, makes you take a double take at the end. You can view it two ways, an artful piece or a freezeframe of a night well wasted.
