CAT

Sometimes she's sleek, a purring panther.
Graceful and lovely,
Gliding through the night.
She's soft and seductive;
She makes me ache with longing.
Sometimes she's a playful Persian cat.
Frisky and feminine,
Frolicking through the day.
She's cute and clever then,
And makes me laugh with joy.
Sometimes she's a mangy alley cat.
Cunning and quick, slinking
Throught the backyards of my soul.
She has no self consciousness then,
And makes my heart leap
With sponteonaety.
Sometimes she's the haughty lioness.
Proud and defiant,
Stalking our jungle for prey.
She's strong and awesome then,
And makes my pulse resonate with desire.
Sometimes, she creeps in.
Subtly, and seduces me.
Her scent wafts across my senses.
I quiver with supressed excitement.
Sometimes, she springs from hiding,
And attacks me.
Her scream cuts through my awareness,
I shudder with overwhelming passion.
And sometimes, she's just a kitten.
I can control her, feeling feline shivers
Under my restraining touch.
Sometimes she's filled with strength.
And overpowers me, sending me scurrying
To the safety of the mousehole
In my cluttered mind.
Sometimes she toys with me.
Batting her eyes, and then my soul.
Back and forth between her front paws,
Catching it by the tail
At that precise instant
In which it would be free.
Sometimes she burns me
As she brushes up close,
With flames intense and hot
Her throaty breath upon my skin,
Consuming me, leaving scarlett embers.
Grey ashes in her wake.
Sometimes she soothes me.
And sings to me softly,
Caressing me until I find relief
from lifes invading fever.
And sometimes...
Sometimes she's Glorious
And takes me to the height of ecstasy
Mere mortals never conceive.
And
Sometimes....
Oh, Sometimes...
She brings out the beast
Within me...
