Bend in the Road by Donavon Franenreiter

claw

by any other name
you

would be
just as sweet, cat,

crawling

on the nothing words i say
(i hum

like strum a guitar with nimble fingers),
i

find you.
like whiskers

the tendrils

(on your strings)

caress my face, make music.
i learn to make

sounds

unlike (anything), purring
to

myself / and you,

you are just for me.
my

kitten crying song.
