What are the Cat Poems?
In the spring of 2002, I was crashing at Brian & Jennifer’s house, where 5 cats kept me company, entertained me, and pestered me, almost all at once. For the first time in a couple of years, I was inspired to write some poetry, since cats are pure poetry themselves. In dedication, the first five of the Cat Poems are titled after each of the cats that allowed me to share their space for those few weeks.
