lacrimae sunt rerum et mentem mortalia tangunt

timpanies of midnight
lassoo me awake

draw my eye to the window
where moonlight gladdens the garden

straining branches declaim valorous idylls
myths legends such like

about cats highwaymen renegades treasure chests
hero priests sword fighting fools loco pirates eloping lovers

but mostly about cats
a floor board creaks

entranced enough for one night
i go back to sleep
