Teh Feline Angst

[vvvexation]

"If Ki were human," said saizai just now, after yet another attempt to decipher what the hell his forlorn yowls are a request for, "he'd be writing bad goth poetry." Of course I just had to try and imagine this:


i am alone in the universe.
my cries of anguish go unheeded.
the blackness of my soul consumes me.

i strike out with teeth and claws
but cannot chew away
the melancholy in which i drown.

my path goes in endless circles
like a treadmill of futility.
clearly my life is devoid of meaning.

(Translation: My humans don't loooooooooooove me!)

i am alone, torn
the world ignores me, for they
know not what i need.

i write without caps
with line breaks in strange places
screams tell not my pain.

i strike out in rage
my teeth and claws find nothing
futility reigns.

perhaps i should try
haiku; it seems to be a
most appealing form.

but no - it would not
alleviate this blackness
mine eyes cannot pierce.

look - ! a string - !

The last line is all Ki, all the time.

KI: Meoooowwwwl.... Meeeeeeooooowwwl.... *blink* *notices twist tie* *gets involved in a life or death struggle with same*

HUMANS IN APT: ........ damn ADHD cat.

i have been bested
in my poetry writing.
shame consumes my soul.

you are not bested;
today i am poetic
because i am bored.

o muse, help me sing
ovid's bastard haiku, while
zoned out in lecture.
