Her Name Was Kitty

That cat, that cat
Never before such a cat

She was a bad cat
With eyes like the devil
Ears that could hear
From seven thousand miles deep in hell

Ensanguined claws
She had dug in to my husband
My wife, and my brother
My sisters and my lovers
They were all killed by my cat

She hated the way I paid attention to them
And forgot to fill her dish every day

She was starving
But she was mad long before I starved her

Oh, oh how the neighbors laughed
When they saw her begging me for food

Quel minou idiot, celui est!

Le pauvre âne, ce chat doit être ennui!

Regardez ses griffes!

Ces griffes sont faites pour le meurtre!

TUEZ MINOU! TUEZ CE MINOU!

And I did.

poor kitty

A poem begins as a lump in the throat, a sense of wrong, a homesickness, a lovesickness. It finds the thought and the thought finds the words.

Robert Frost (1875-1963) American Poet.
