cats eyes

cats eyes 

threaten mine 

challenge my words

threaten my existence 

laughing at 

the thin skin 

that covers whatever 

it is im made of

as the sun sets low 

i will miss the point 

i will pass the signs

blame it on my adhd 

blame it on my self pity

blame it on my bad eyes 

im too much 

it’s too late to know 

you’re trying to tell me 

to go slow

im missing the hint again, i know 

if it’s so obvious how did i miss it 

keep telling me and i will dismiss it 

the moon hangs high

an unblinking eye 

then it winks at me

and i realize maybe 

i am a show 

i am a mockery 

you are here to point 

and gawk at me 

because i will tell 

a thousand stories 

i will make you look at me 

ill be your dog 

ill be a golden boy 

for anyone who wants me

im at your door 

waiting for the call

im underneath the table 

waiting for a crumb to fall

and i make believe 

that i understand 

i am made of clay 

i am made of sand 

ill be your dog 

ill be a golden boy 

for anyone who wants me at all

does anybody want me at all?
