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!)

In an act of one-upmanship, our black cat writes his angsty goth poetry in the cabinet under the sink.

I am alone
The world is dark
Reality's black fur coat

Woe to those who bring cheer
And throw open the world's doors
Eschew the hand that seeks you.

That's...

...painful...

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 - !

So alone, SO ALONE!

I am upside down.
My dignity is threatened.
Now, should I bite you?
