Cat on my keyboard, keyboard cat,
I won’t be working today. Instead,
I might have been reading, or still in bed…
for there you sat,
and laid your head down along the edge
of the keyboard, staking a silent claim,
knowing I wouldn’t be put to shame
by breaking the pledge
and covenant made between you me:
I am your person and you my cat;
you are the ruler and that is that
eternally.
