It has been a while since I have been gazing at these three
Trying to get their attention with sounds that clearly don’t seem to impress them enough
Seated around in a rather conclave fashioned frame of mind
They seem to care little or maybe too much about everything around them
Well I am assured that my company isn’t invited for sure
And this trespassing isn’t appreciated by the majesties who have gathered at the break of the dawn.
But I wonder what this early morning catchup is all about?
Maybe it’s a rant on how the fresh catch by the beach was a disgust
Or a dialogue on how the pup by the street has grown up to be a menace
Or maybe it’s about the cookies from the bakery that smelled lovelier than usual
But what if I am eavesdropping on a deep conversation on how disappointing the 2 legged ones have been.
A conversation that is quite bitchy yet I don’t know if it’s pointing towards me👀
What if I have accidentally bought tickets to a round table discussion on the kind of disgrace mankind has been.
I wonder what those arguments will be and if I even have a monologue for our defense.
Like imagine being judged by cats who get judged all the time
Feel the irony of calling them selfish while we push our cards ahead towards the counter
Calling them needy while we wait for drumrolls at the very sight of anything that brings pride
Tagging them as choosy while we reject anything less than comfort.
We live in parallel worlds with coinciding characters
stereotyped across breeds and creeds
Whispering in codes of language and spirits
Conversations building up
in every nook and corner
in the convenience of frowns and giggles
in chaos and in silence
and sometimes in just inquisitiveness of what could possibly follow*…
* And having stared at this trio for long enough I am just thankful I didn’t get scratched 😛
