My Life As A Cat.

[Raz]

My life as a cat.

I could spend half my life asleep in the sun
while the day's hazy rays and the eucalypt breeze
whisper their lessons in my welcoming ear.
Pleasure is not something which needs to be chased,
it's there for the having for those who know how to have it.
And maybe in other days I learned to live with pain,
or maybe I'd just have the power to refuse its hold.
But either way I could be happy with this languid selfishness
In my life as a cat.
